Lombard will head into Sunday with a tournament total of 11 under-par as slippery greens.

South Africans Zander Lombard and Louis Oosthuizen shake hands on the 18th green after completing the third round of the Nedbank Golf Challenge at Sun City on Saturday.Overnight leader Zander Lombard recovered from a horror start to card a par score of 72 and hold a one-shot lead after the third round of the European Tour’s Nedbank Golf Challenge at the Gary Player Country Club at Sun City on Saturday.

He saw his overnight lead cut by a shot on Saturday, but is aiming to become the second home player to win ‘Africa’s Major’ since 2008. He is one shot ahead of compatriot Louis Oosthuizen and Belgian Thomas Detry , whose erratic back nine saw him joint leader with Lombard heading down the 18th fairway before a dropped shot.
