New Delhi, February 9: Rafael Jacqueline overcame testing course conditions to card an even-par 72 and lead by one shot after the third round of the Indian Masters on Saturday.

The 33-year-old Frenchman carded a six-under 214 with overnight leader Damien McGrane of Ireland (75), Northern Irishman Graeme McDowell (73) and Spaniard Jose Manuel Lara (71) tied for second at the Delhi Golf Club.

South African World No. 4 Ernie Els shot the day's best of 69 to roll back to within four strokes of the lead after struggling on the first two days.

Shifting winds, tough pins and greens withered by the winter where putting proved a nightmare frustrated the players.

Jacqueline bogeyed three holes on the back nine but bagged a 16-foot eagle three on the 14th which helped him take the lead in the tournament co-sanctioned by the European and Asian tours.

Indian pair Shivshankar Chowrasia (71) and Arjun Atwal (72) were tied for fifth on 212. Four local players were among the top 10.
