Darren Clarke moved into a share of the lead with a third-round 66 in the Africa Open at East London Golf Club today. Clarke continued his consistent form, adding a 66 to his opening rounds of 67 and 65 to join South African James Kingston at the top of the leaderboard on 18 under par.

The pair are two shots clear of two more local players, Richard Sterne and Darren Fichardt, with Canada’s Graham de Laet another stroke adrift after a superb 64.

Overnight leader Angel Cabrera slipped four shots off the pace after a 72, the Argentinian alongside fellow former US Open champion Retief Goosen and Michael Hoey on 14-under.
