Indian amateur Arjun Prasad carded a third successive round in 60s to stay as the top Indian in the 2017 Asian Tour Qualifying School's Final Stage.
The 17-year-old Prasad carded three-under 69 to go with his earlier rounds of 66 and 67 to get to 14-under 202 and was tied-13th with one more round to go.
Prasad, who was tied-11th overnight, was six behind the leader, Japan's Junya Kameshiro (67-62-67).
For the third straight day, Prasad had just one bogey on his card for the day. He had four other birdies and missed quite a few others.
Sujjan Singh (68-66-70) was the next best Indian at tied 23rd with a total of 12-under-204.
With only top-35 and ties getting the card, Prasad and Sujjan are in a good position to get their playing rights for 2017 Asian Tour.
Among the other Indians in the field, Udayan Mane (68) and Abhijit Singh Chadha (73) occupied joint 50th place at nine-under-207, Ashok Kumar (69) was a further shot back in tied 58th, Aman Raj (71) and Manu Gandas (72) were both tied for 85th at six-under-210, Ajeetesh Sandhu (72) was in tied 94th at five-under-211 and M Dharma (73) was tied 106th at four-under-212.
