From there, the situation changed and he could only manage three bogeys without a birdie for the rest of the day. Still, it was enough to keep him at the top of the leaderboard.After his performance on Saturday, Tarren had this to say (via DP World Tour News Service):"I'm a bit frustrated really. I got off to such a good start, felt so comfortable. I just missed a few putts in that mid-section of the round, three-putted the eighth, a short one at the ninth, a good chance at the tenth and didn't capitalize."First round leader and Royal Golf Course record holder Brandon Robinson Thompson carded a third round 68 to move into a share of second place. The other three players tied with him, Francesco Laporta, Pablo Larrazabal and Daniel Brown, shot 68, 70 and 71 respectively on Saturday.
