Pablo Larrazabal will take a one-shot lead into the ultimate spherical of the KLM Open after a flawless 5-under 67 on Saturday.
The Spaniard, who’s chasing a ninth European tour title only one month after his final victory on the Korea Championship, made 5 birdies to achieve 10-under 206 general.
“We’re going to have to do a lot of good things now. Calm down and hit some balls and practice a little bit,” the 40-year-old Larrazabal stated. “And we’re going to have to rest very well because my batteries are running down.”
Dane Rasmus Hojgaard (67) and Spain’s Adrian Otaegui (69) have been Larrazabal’s nearest challengers, one shot behind.
Larrazabal turned in 33 after making birdies at Nos. 3, 6 and eight earlier than choosing up additional pictures on the tenth and sixteenth to hit the entrance at Bernardus Golf.
Larrazabal then recovered from lacking the green along with his first and second pictures into the 18th by getting up and down for a par, courtesy of a 14-foot putt.
Overnight chief Jorge Campillo dropped to a share of eleventh with a 4-over 76.
