GOLF.GARA.Van der Vight surges into Hainan Open lead

The Dutchman carded ten birdies and no bogeys in his third round to reach 19 under for the week and move clear of 36-hole leader Joseba Torres and Finland’s Tapio Pulkkanen, who will enter Sunday at 16 under.

Van der Vight was delighted to see his game finally click, allowing him to take full advantage of the scoring opportunities at Sanya Luhuitou Golf Club.

“I’ve played great all week but it felt like today finally things really got going on and around the greens,” he said. “I’m very pleased with today.

“I’m just trying to play golf. With next week’s event and going into the Grand Final in Mallorca, that’s ten more rounds of golf to play this year including today, so I just treated it as another round. I just do my thing, and I did well again today.”
