Gonzalo Fernandez-Castao three-putted the last at Pula in Majorca yesterday but home hopes still bake fiercely for a Spanish feat in todays last round. The inapplicable designation authorised Pelle Edberg of Sweden to catch "Gonzo" the dual are together on four-under par.
Four times a personality on the European Tour, though never in his own nation, the 29-year-old from Madrid kept a spook off his label in the wily conditions until he came to the par-three 18th. Then the unsure putting that has condemned him given his last feat a play-off success over Lee Westwood in the 2008 British Masters at The Belfry returned with a vengeance.
The leaderboard promises a stirring final-round shootout in difficult conditions, with Chris Wood of Bristol in hold on one-under and harbouring hopes of a lass win.
Edberg, who was the corner median personality with James Kingston, followed his overwhelming second-round 64 with a 71, blending 4 birdies with five bogeys. That was improved than Kingston managed. The 44-year-old South African did not have a birdie and bogeys on the third, 10th, 12th and 14th meant a 74 and a dump in to a tie for sixth. The Australian Scott Hend shot a best-of-the-day 66 to move from ninth to third. He will resume one shot off the pace.
In the US, after a Friday chasm caused by complicated rain, thunderstorms and a hurricane warning, the organisers of the Valero Texas Open were scrambling to catch up last night. South Africas Ernie Els, one of couple of big names in the event, shot in to row with five birdies in his second-round 67.
