Scott -14, McIlroy -15 (17)
Pure class from Adam Scott, who splashes out of the bunker and runs his ball down to gimme range. The Australian will finish with a birdie, surely.
Can McIlroy finish with a flourish?published at 16:20 BST
Scott -14, McIlroy -15 (17)
Sensational. Rory McIlroy goes straight at the pin on the 18th and just listen to that roar. His ball lands and spins and leaves a birdie putt of around six feet up the slope.

Spaun hits the frontpublished at 16:18 BST

JJ Spaun raises his right arm aloft.
He is timing his run to victory beautifully here, sinking a birdie attempt from 17 feet to move to 16 under.

Scott -14, McIlroy -15 (17)
Rory McIlroy made an eagle on the 18th on Saturday, but he's found a fairway bunker off the tee today and he does not look overly thrilled with having to lay up from there.
Adam Scott has 218-yards to carry to reach the pin but he's pushed that right and found a greenside sand trap.

MacIntyre finishes with flurrypublished at 16:15 BST
MacIntyre -13 (69)
Birdie, birdie, eagle.
Bob MacIntyre has finished his tournament in style to rise to 13 under and in a tie for ninth.
But the Scot will rue three consecutive bogies at the start of his back nine, which took him out of contention.
It's a similar story for England's Matt Wallace, who eagles the 18th to finish on the same score.

McIlroy joins leaderspublished at 16:09 BST
Scott -14, McIlroy -15 (17)

Rory McIlroy has a four iron out and zips his second just through the back of the 17th green. He should get up and down for a birdie four from there.
He takes his flatstick and the ball pops off the surface but trickles down to a foot or two before he knocks in his birdie putt for a share of the lead with Aaron Rai (who is in the clubhouse), JJ Spaun, who has just knocked in a birdie on the 15th and Manuel Elvira.
Elvira drops a shotpublished at 16:09 BST
M Elvira -15 (14)
Manuel Elvira tugs his approach into the 14th and is unable to save his par after leaving himself a five footer with his second.

'Play-off still a possibility'published at 16:01 BST
Alex Miceli
US golf reporter on BBC Radio 5 live
I thought play-off earlier on and I still think that's a possibility.
But someone's going to have to jump up there and make a move.
Postpublished at 15:52 BST
Scott -13, McIlroy -14 (16)
Rory McIlroy knocks his hat off as if to say 'how has that not dropped?'. It's another birdie putt albeit from 17 feet that has gone begging.

Fitzpatrick & Fox finish with birdiespublished at 15:51 BST

Matt Fitzpatrick finds the dance floor in two but misjudges his eagle putt, which has nowehere near as much break as he was anticipating.
Ryan Fox has the advantage of following the Englishman from a similar line but he over compensates. Both conclude their rounds with birdies, which is not quite enough for either. They sit in a tie for third.
Elvira takes solo leadpublished at 15:45 BST
M Elvira -16 (12)

Manuel Elvira has an eagle putt on the 12th but plays smart, rolling up close and tapping in for birdie to take the outright lead.
He has his sights firmly set on a first DP World Tour win here. What a story that would be.

Scott -13, McIlroy -14 (15)
Rory McIlroy and Adam Scott both had mid-range birdie chances on the 15th but neither can convert them.
The Northern Irishman's effort breaks from the right and trickles left as a young fan waves a sign at McIlroy asking if he'll give her one of his golf balls.

Birdie for Fitzypublished at 15:33 BST
M Fitzpatrick -13, Fox -13 (17)
Matt Fitzpatrick cannot believe that has not dropped. His eagle putt on the 17th appeared to be tracking nicely towards the hole but it somehow stays right.
The Englishman and his playing partner Ryan Fox probably both need eagles on the 18th to have any chance here.

Rai takes clubhouse leadpublished at 15:33 BST
Rai -15 (66)
Image source, Getty Images
Aaron Rai's birdie effort rolls down the slope but it's a timid effort and falls well short.
The Englishman delicately putts for par and finishes at 15 under par with a round of 66 - including seven birdies.
He's the clubhouse leader, the co-leader - will it be enough?
Big ask for Rai on lastpublished at 15:27 BST
Rai -15 (17)
Co-leader Aaron Rai has a 35-foot putt for birdie on the 18th.
He's holed these under pressure before - to win this event I think he'll need it, with others still with holes to play.

McIlroy one off leadpublished at 15:25 BST
Scott -13, McIlroy -14 (14)
What a tasty response from Rory McIlroy. The six-time major winner zips into four feet on the par-three 14th.
And this time his short birdie putt disappears.
Postpublished at 15:19 BST
Scott -11, McIlroy -13 (13)
Adam Scott's ball is just outside Rory McIlroy's so he is up first and the Australian makes no mistake.
What did his playing partner take from that? Not too much. It's a chance spurned.

Iain Carter
BBC golf correspondent on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra 3 at Wentworth
It does feel like there's always an extra gear available to Rory McIlroy that you can't say about so many of the other players.
It's just the quality of golfer that he is.
Splash!published at 15:17 BST
Hovland -12 (17)
Viktor Hovland is at four under for the day with no blemishes to his card today but he now finds the water on the 18th.
His short approach shot skids when it hits the fringe and scurries down the banking into the drink.
