Hilversum, Oct 12: Sweden's Soren Hansen takes a one-stroke lead into the final of the Dutch Open.
Denmark's Soren Hansen takes a one-stroke lead over local favourite Maarten Lafeber into Sunday's Dutch Open final round, seeking his second European Tour win.
The 29-year-old overtook Dutchman Lafeber, who is looking for an overdue maiden title, with a blistering run over the back nine on Saturday, collecting five birdies after the turn to card a four-under-par 66.
On 11-under 199, he heads Lafeber, who equalled the best round of the week with a 64, by a shot. Ireland's Gary Murphy and Briton Jamie Donaldson are a further stroke back. Hansen hardly looked a threat early on as he reached the turn one-over, but then he suddenly found his putting touch to come home five-under.
