Defending champion Martin Kaymer extended his lead at the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship to five strokes over Rory McIlroy after shooting a 6-under 66 in the third round Saturday.
Kaymer, the 2010 PGA Championship winner who also won last year's European money order, birdied three of his last four holes to total 18-under 198 at Abu Dhabi Golf Club
"The great thing is I've made only one bogey so far, and that was the first day," Kaymer said. "I played very consistently. I've made a lot of birdies the last three days."
McIlroy finished birdie-eagle for a 65 to move into second place.
David Lynn of England (67) is at 204, two strokes ahead of Race to Dubai leader Charl Schwartzel of South Africa (71) and Alexander Noren of Sweden (67).
