Crans-sur-Sierre (Switzerland) (AFP) - England's Danny Willett and Matt Fitzpatrick will take a two-shot lead into Sunday's final round of the European Masters after a dramatic third day at Crans-sur-Sierre.

Willett, who led the British Open at St Andrews at one stage last week, had a one-shot advantage at the start of the day.

But the 27-year-old struggled on the front nine and had two bogeys and a double-bogey in his first four holes.
