Feeding off his recent brilliant run on the European Tour, Shubhankar Sharma of India produced scores of 67, 64 and 70, to be placed tied fifth at 12-under 201 after round three of the Open de Espana in Madrid.
Sharma, who trails the leader Rafa Cabrera Bello of Spain by five shots, fired two birdies and a bogey during his third round of one-under 70. Shubhankar had earlier sunk two eagles during his second round of seven-under 64.
Sharma, a two-time winner on the European Tour, has so far posted three top-10s on the tour this season with his best being tied eighth at the Made in Himmerland event played in Denmark in May this year.
