Miguel Angel Jimenez fired a bogey-free 65 to take a four-shot lead in to the final round of the Senior Open Championship at Carnoustie. The Spaniard followed a front-nine 33 with four more birdies after the turn to set the clubhouse target, before seeing his advantage increased as overnight joint-leader Joe Durant dropped two strokes late in his round.Resuming three shots adrift of Durant and Kohki Idoki, Jimenez raced out of the blocks and moved in to a share of the lead with gains at the second, fourth and sixth. Jimenez is a three-time winner on the Champions Tour After the overnight pacesetters both posted opening-hole bogeys at the first, Magnus Atlevi briefly took the outright advantage after holing his second shot from the par-four third fairway and birdieing the next.The Swede dropped shots at the fifth and seventh to give Jimenez a one-shot cushion heading in to the back nine, which he doubled by sinking a 12-footer at the 10th.A bunched leaderboard at one stage saw nine players tied on six under, only for Paul Broadhurst to post successive gains from the 11th and Wes Short Jr to also cut the gap.Jimenez restored his cushion with a birdie at the par-five 12th, before nudging a close-range gain at the 14th and carding a three at the 17th. Langer posted a third consecutive 71 The 52-year-old missed the chance to equal the Carnoustie course record as he missed a six-footer at the last, but remains in pole position to claim a maiden Senior major title.Durant looked set to threaten Jimenezs cushion when a hat-trick of gains from the 11th lifted him back within two, but dropped shots at the 15th and 18th leave him tied-second with Short, Paul Broadhurst and Tom Byrum.Scott Mccarron sits on his own in sixth spot, with Jesper Parnevik and Tom Lehman part of the group a further stroke back. Two-time Masters champion Bernhard Langer posted a third consecutive 71 to get to three under, while Idoki ran up four consecutive bogeys along the closing stretch to sign for a five-over 77.Watch the final round of the Senior Open Championship live on Sunday from 2pm on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf Also See: Carnoustie leaderboard Senior Open: R2 highlights Ewen on golfing perfection Golf live on Sky Sports Yeezy From China .

Donald had an eagle and six birdies to shoot 66 on Saturday and take a two-stroke lead over John Huh after three rounds at Harbour Town Golf Links. The Englishman has done just about everything on Harbour Town the past five times hes played -- except win. He fell in a playoff to Brandt Snedeker here in 2011, part of a run of four top-3 finishes since at the tricky, Pete Dye design. Now, hell carry the lead into the final day and is ready to make it stand up on Sunday. "If I can go out as relaxed and confident as I was today tomorrow," he said. "If I can control the trajectory (of shots) as well as I did today, then hopefully Ill be sitting here as the winner." It has been a long time since Donald has been able to say that. Once the worlds top-ranked golfer, Donald has changed coaches and the transition back to the top has not come as quickly as planned. The last of his five PGA Tour wins came in 2012, his best showing this year was a tie for fourth at the Valspar Championship last month and he was quickly bounced at the Masters after shooting 79-70. Donald acknowledged he has grown anxious waiting to win again. "I was the former world No. 1 and was there for a long time and obviously slipped down," said Donald, currently 29th. "But I havent felt my game had gotten that much worse." Certainly not at Harbour Town. Donalds round got started with a 25-footer for eagle on the par-5 second hold. He added four more on the next six holes. Donald then tied leader Nicholas Thompson with a birdie on the 14th before stretching his lead with a final one by rolling in a 15-foot putt on the par-3 17th. Donald nearly closed with a flourish when his approach on the closing, lighthouse hole nearly landed in the cup on the fly before bouncing to the edge and settling for par. Donalds not the longest hitter on tour and said some layouts are dragons he cant slay. "But this one I feel like I can plot my way around with low wedges," he said. "If you miss greens, you need to be pretty good at the short game. Certainly a course that favours my style of play." Huh shot a 68 and was at 6 under. Major champions Charl Schwartzel (68) and Jim Furyk (71), Nicholas Thompson (68) and Ben Martin (71) were tied for third at 5 under.dddddddddddd Matt Kuchar, ranked sixth in the world, shot 70 as part of a group of five golfers another shot back at 4 under. Donalds performance capped a long day at soggy Harbour Town, where 65 golfers had to finish the second round before the third could begin with K.J. Choi, Furyk and Ben Martin tied for the lead. But by midafternoon, the moisture had softened things and competitors were treated to slick greens easily accepting approach shots. At times, it looked more like a local club shootout than a PGA Tour stop. Thompson, whose sister Lexi won her first LPGA Tour major at the Kraft Nabisco Championship earlier this month, got things going with five birdies on the front nine to lead at 7 under. But bogeys at the 16th and 18th holes dropped him back into the group at 208. Schwartzel, the 2011 Masters champion, was among those with an early start and jumped into the chase with a third-round 68 to move to 5 under. He said the course held up well despite more than 2 1/2 inches of rain that fell here Friday. Schwartzel has not won on the PGA Tour since his surprising run to the green jacket, when he birdied the final four holes. "I think if I can continue the ball striking and giving myself chances, I can make a few (birdies) tomorrow and give it a shot," he said. Furyk, the 2010 winner at Harbour Town, made birdie on his second hole to take the lead at 6 under. He failed to build on that hot start, but held on to stay in the hunt. The craziest day might have belonged to Kuchar, the highest-ranked player competing at Harbour Town after the seasons first major. He followed his fifth-place showing at the Masters last week with a strong bogey-free 66 on Thursday to take the lead. Things went the other way quickly Friday, with Kuchar posting a pair of double bogeys before the rains came and suspended play. Kuchar struggled some more with a bogey on the eighth hole once he restarted Saturday. Then he made four birdies on his back nine to climb back in it. Kuchar has finished fifth or better in his past three events and has a chance to do it again at Harbour Town. "To be playing some good golf and be in contention is fun," he said. "Im excited to have my fourth shot at trying to take a title." ' ' '
