Tour veteran Kiyoshi Murota shot an even-par 72 in gusty conditions Saturday to take a one-shot lead into the final round of the Dydo-Drinco Shizuoka Open.
Zhang Lianwei, the first Chinese professional golfer, matched the day's best score with a 69 and lies second behind Murota who is at 9-under 207 after three rounds at the Shizuoka Country Club's Hamaoka Course.
