Frenchman Romain Wattel will take a three shot cushion into the final round after firing a six under par 64 at Kennemer Golf and Country Club in The Netherlands.
The 23 year old Frenchman, who is bidding for a maiden European Tour title, posted seven birdies in his opening 16 holes, with his only bogey of the day coming on the 17th. Wattel is 14-under par for the tournament, with Scotland's Richie Ramsay is his nearest challenger on 11 under par following a round of 65.
The former Ryder Cup player's approach landed an inch from the cup, but then spun off the green and he could only make bogey, signing for a round of 62 and a ten under par total, leaving him four shots back in third place.
