Lee Westwood maintained his three-shot lead in the third round of the Nordea Masters in Stockholm.
The world number three carded a 68 to move to 16 under par, ahead of fellow Englishman Ross Fisher, who shot a superb seven-under par 65.
Westwood said: "I played well, hit a lot of good shots.
"I didn't really get into too much trouble. I got a bit of a flier on the second and that was the only bogey I made all day."
Westwood birdied the par-five first, only to run up a bogey five on the second.
He recovered with a superb approach to the fourth that set up the easiest of birdies and, though more chances went begging on the front nine, a hat-trick of birdies from the 11th kept Westwood in front.
"I did misread a couple of putts on the front nine, the one on five and the one on eight, but other than that I putted well," he added. "I've read the greens well this week and rolled in a couple of nice ones on the back nine."
Westwood's playing partner Peter Hanson managed a battling 69, which included a double-bogey six on the eighth, to lie one shot behind Fisher on 12 under.
England's Richard Bland is five shots off the lead in fourth after a 68, with Swedish duo Michael Jonzon and Alexander Noren sharing fifth another shot back.
