Australia’s Austin Bautista is just one stroke back at 13-under-par 203 after a sizzling 66 on Saturday, while Viljoen carded a 70 and sits at 12-under 204. The race for top honours at Royal Harare is shaping up to be an intense final-day showdown. Carrera, playing in Zimbabwe for the first time, said it was a tough day despite holding onto the lead. “I didn’t play as good. I didn’t play great shots, it was tougher but around the greens I was pretty good so that helped me. The pins were tough today, they were the toughest of the three days so it made it a little harder. "The course is great. I told myself if I play good I will be in contention to win and I am glad I playing good. I would love to come back and play in Zimbabwe if I keep my Sunshine Tour card,” said Carrera. Among the local favourites, Robson Chinhoi leads the Zimbabwean field at five-under-par 211 after a level-par third round. He shares ninth place with Stefan Wears-Taylor and Jean Hugo. Visitor Mapwanya sits on two-under-par 214 after a 72, followed by Stuart Krog at one-under 215 after a third round 71. Tonderai Masunga and Muyambo are tied on level-par 216 after rounds of 71 and 73, respectively. Shaahid Mahmed is at three-over-par 219, narrowly ahead of Ryan Cairns at four-over 220.
