HONG KONG, Dec 10 (Reuters) - Unheralded Australian Sam Brazel shot a three-under 67 to grab a share of the lead with playing partner Rafa Cabrera Bello after the third round of the Hong Kong Open at Fanling on Saturday.
Ranked 480th in the world, Brazel soared up the leaderboard with three birdies on the back nine as Spaniard Cabrera Bello, who had led by three strokes overnight, endured a roller-coaster even par round at the European Tour co-sanctioned event.
The pair were locked on an 11-under total of 199, two strokes ahead of Englishman Tommy Fleetwood heading into the final round.
