• Rahm, Willett in control

    Jon Rahm
    Looking for another big win

    Jon Rahm and Danny Willett will share the lead heading into the final round of the BMW PGA Championship after they could not be separated on a dramatic third day at Wentworth Golf Club.

    The duo entered the weekend locked together and after an afternoon that ebbed and flowed in the glorious English sunshine, they both recorded rounds of 68 to head into day four of the fourth Rolex Series event of the season at 15 under.

    Home hero Justin Rose, South Africa’s Christiaan Bezuidenhout and Indian Shubhankar Sharma were then three shots off the lead, two clear of Spaniard Rafa Cabrera Bello and Scot Richie Ramsay.

    England’s Ross Fisher made history by recording the first ever albatross on the 18th at Wentworth to win a BMW i8 Roadster and sit at seven under, a shot clear of World Number Two Rory McIlroy, whose 65 was the lowest round of the day.

    Rose and Bezuidenhout both carded rounds of 69, while Sharma bogeyed the last in an excellent 66 as he surged up the leaderboard.

    Cabrera Bello and Ramsay both registered 67s to sit a shot ahead of Patrick Reed and two clear of Paul Casey, Billy Horschel, Viktor Hovland, Andrew Johnston, defending champion Francesco Molinari and Andrew Putnam.
