This Saturday the third round of the ISPS HANDA Australian Open was held in Sydney. If Min Woo Lee still leads the debates, he has been joined in the lead by Rikuya Hoshino. For his part, Alexander Levy fell in the rankings.
Min Woo Lee will still have to fight to do the double. Already a winner last week, on his land, in Brisbane, the Australian, in the lead with three lengths ahead after 36 holes played, was a little less in spirit on the occasion of this moving day and returned a card of 70 (four birdies including one at 18, a bogey, a double bogey at 3). “If I win, I win and last week was last week. I’m pretty happy with my game and I feel good. I hope tomorrow is a good day,” said the 25-year-old. The latter still remains in control but allowed his pursuers to get going again.
This is particularly the case of Rikuya Hoshino. Indeed, the Japanese, titled six times on the Japan Golf Tour, took advantage of this third round to sign a superb score of 65, the best of the day (four birdies, an eagle at 14) and above all to rise too at the top of the leaderboard (-13 total). “I will use the experience I gained by winning many tournaments in Japan,” he announced. My goal is to win on the DP World Tour this year, so I will try to do my best. »
