Young Argentine golfer Emiliano Grillo has earned a two-shot lead after the third round of the Africa Open by producing his lowest score on the European Tour on Saturday with a nine-under-par 62.

The 21-year-old, second at the Dubai Desert Classic a fortnight ago, carried on his good form by reeling off nine birdies to finish on 20-under 193 as he recorded the best round of the day, two ahead of Briton Oliver Fisher (66) at the East London Golf Club.

According to Sport24, British golfer Richard Bland (64), who is seeking a first tour win at the 319th attempt, was a further two shots back along with South African Thomas Aiken (66) and overnight leader John Hahn of the United States (71).

 

Fisher, winner of the 2011 Czech Open, stayed in touch after a storming finish that included two birdies and an eagle in his final four holes, the report added.
