KUALA LUMPUR: England’s Lee Westwood turned in a 70 on the penultimate round of the Maybank Championship in Malaysia on Saturday to trail joint leaders Jorge Campillo and Dylan Frittelli by three shots.
The 44-year-old Westwood won the Malaysian Open here at Saujana Golf and Country Club 21 years ago.
And he shot a 62 on Friday for the lowest score yet. Spaniard Campillo and South Africa’s Frittelli both dropped in a 66 for the single-stroke advantage.
The Maybank Championship remains up for grabs with the top 18 golfers separated by only three shots with the final round on Sunday.
Frittelli, who bagged two European Tour titles in 2017, is eyeing the championship.
“It is super bunched. A lot of Japanese guys are up there, a few other Spanish guys, Jorge played great today with me and I’m not sure if we will be drawn together tomorrow but I’m excited to mix it up,” said Frittelli, who shot six birdies.
Trailing the leaders tied-third are American Berry Henson and India’s Joshi Khalin, who ended the day 14-under-par 202.
