Round 3 Highlights | 2024 Danish Golf Championship

Now coming off an eagle at the first, here's Sharma at the shortish par for second. He's split the fairway, just a little bit uphill, pins only eight on today. First, pops a little birdie at the second. Another birdie chance here for the young amateur. Olesen, get out of the way, oh and he's, he's holding it, beautiful stuff. Two under through the first five, what a great start to six under par. Pepperall next to go at the third. Oh my goodness. Had a look, didn't it? And then got scared of heights. David Reveto could still claim the prize for topping the closing swing rankings. We conclude the last of the five global swings this week in Denmark. And that'll certainly help his cause. A wonderful victory for him last week in the Czech Republic. And he's playing nicely again here. Look at that, birdies at seven and eight, moving Reveto within three of the lead. Nikolaj Hojga laid up at nine, as so many do. Olesen from, coming to the turn, 112 yards he's got to the pin. He's having a good day, six under. Good spin, look at this. Another eagle putt, this time for Andrew Wilson at the short par for 12th. They're going in from everywhere. It's just a very easy game, Richard, obviously. Well, there's the most amount of yellow I've seen on the scoreboard for a long time. He's going to knock this up and over the trees. I don't know whether he's drawn that one, he wants to cut it just a little left to right. Oh, he has, you beauty. What a shot. Longask trying to get to within one of the lead at the second. He's done it. Beauregard didn't quite get his chip right. Quite fast through here. And he's done it. 111 to this pin here at the third for Longask. Caddy Brendan McCartan, hanging that one up and down, plenty of spin. Oh, he hits it with a lot of spin. To the fourth, David Horsey. 142 yards, need a par on the last over. He dropped two shots in the first two holes. Now stay there, stay, stay, stay. Needs to start rolling a few in, David Horsey. From Sadier to Garrier. You're back, Don. Refreshed, and he's stopped from Beauregard. A couple of inches outside right, Neogard-Peterson down the hill. Should move from right to left and then level out near the hole. Oh, yes. That was always just tracking, wasn't it? Down the hill. Very short par three, this one. It is. Only playing 127 yards. Just a little punchy shot in. Pin right at the front. Well judged. Excellent throw on Longask. Oh, yes. Another one goes in for Salomon. So seven under now. And a chance here at the par five tenth to improve on that and close within one. The par two. Give us some squeaky ducks. Beauty. Generally, guys with shorter backswings find it so much easier to take distance off the wedges. Downhill. Easing it onto the green. That was some brilliant putt. How greedy is he? Greedy is he? Greedy is the answer. That is a great shot. Julian Garrier has laid up at the tenth, his third now. And nothing really has happened for Garrier. Nine straight pars to this point. And maybe, just maybe, he will break the sequence there. Clubber breeze on the last for the pitch. This one, all of a sudden, it's dropped off away completely. I think Johnny Morgan mentioned it on about the seventh. So hard to judge this. The amateur championship played well in the open, but to do it on home soil in front of these big crowds. I feel like I'm pretty good in taking a spin out when it's windy. I like playing in difficult conditions. Yeah, I just chipped the nine-nine, which is probably two clubs too much. And it's still the wind just whistled it from right to left. I would say we'll see a lot of good golf in the future from him. But yeah, a lot of younger, fresh players, obviously. That was Lacroix. Lacroix into the 16th. It's a shot that is from Frederick Lacroix. It's a good week here to get inside that top hundred. That's much better. Third shot into the par five. Just a little gap wedge and a little bit of spin. And it just gets closer and closer. Back to the 14th tournament leader. Lucas Beauregard. Third shot he could do with the birdie here. He might well just do that. From the fairway, it's 16 long guys to a back flag. OK, tough to access this. To Frederick Lacroix, claimed his place last year on DP World Tour via the Challenge Tour rankings. Awkward starts well below his feet, the ball. What a golf shot from that stance. That is definitely one of the shots of the day right there. Pepper was in there reasonably tight, but it's for four because the first one was out of bounds. Off the tee. Seven iron, perfect. Beauregard Peterson, he deserved that, didn't he? Out of the bound, great back at 17. At 16, I beg your pardon. Now, knock it in nice and close from 150. Yes, that's what we like to see, a little tap in. This is for a bogey-free round of 66. Really well done from Lucas Beauregard. One more good day. And he will be back on the DP World Tour. Lucas, well done, a bogey-free 66 for the 54 hole lead. How do you assess your performance for today? Yeah, a bogey-free round is never bad, especially with the finish we have out here. But yeah, very happy. I played solid, had a bit of a stretch mid-round where I had some good up and downs to keep the round going. And then got on a bit of a birdie run on the start of the back nine, so that was nice. Yeah, three straight birdies to open up your back nine. So what was actually particularly clicking through that stretch? Yeah, good question. I mean, I hit it on the green in two on 10, hit a nice wet shot on 11 close. And then drove it up just next to the green on 12. So it was three pretty simple birdies, really. So that was nice. Yeah, and three top 10 finishes on your last three on the Challenge Tour. So what's been working well for you and what do you put this form down to? I think I've been in a different position this year than I've been used to. I don't have very good status on Challenge Tour. So I've been playing on invites and top 10s and so on. So I haven't been able to plan very much. So it's been very much one day at a time, one tournament at a time. And I think that's really what's been working well for me. So I'll try to do that again tomorrow. Okay, well, here on the DP World Tour, you've got a lot of home support out here. So how much does that aid your performance and how aware are you of that? It's brilliant. I mean, we haven't had many spectators on the Challenge Tour this year. So to get this kind of support, to have my family here and just walk down 18 and see all those people was amazing. Okay, and you've been pretty vocal about your struggles and you've worked really, really hard to get back to this point. So what do you need to do to get the job done tomorrow? Again, I just need to stay in the moment, really. As I said, I haven't been able to plan very well and that's kind of been good for me, I think. So I will just try to do a bit more of that. As you said, I've been struggling and I've had a hard time these last couple of years. So everything is just one step at a time and I'll try to survive, really. Okay, well, you've got Denmark behind you, so best of luck tomorrow. Thank you.
