Here is everything you need to know from Moving Day at Houghton Golf Club.
Norris builds commanding lead...
Norris will take a four-shot lead into the final round as he looks to secure his second home victory of the season. He started the day with a one-shot lead and still held that narrow advantage at the turn after an eventful front nine which saw the South African make a double bogey and three birdies. But a lightning-quick start to the homeward nine took the 42-year-old three shots clear, and although he bogeyed the 15th, a double bogey from playing partner Adrien Saddier on the same hole extended Norris' lead to four with three holes remaining. And he safely parred all three of them to remain in pole position to add to the Alfred Dunhill Championship crown he won in December and claim a third DP World Tour title in total on Sunday.
...And holes extremely tricky putt for birdie
Norris may have found the putting surface at the short 14th but he still had a lot of work to do to make sure he didn't three-putt from 30 feet on a tough green. He did even better than that, though, draining his slick putt for a brilliant birdie.
Mansell nearly makes slam-dunk ace
Richard Mansell went straight for the pin with his tee-shot at the par-three seventh, so much so that his ball nearly pitched straight in the cup! He instead had to settle for a close-range birdie.
Kruyswijk's exceptional eagle
Jacques Kruyswijk put forward a strong contender for shot of the week on Saturday as he span his wedge shot into the hole for a memorable eagle at the par-five tenth. Check this out...
Luiten uses the slopes
Joost Luiten put on a show for the fans around the fifth green, sending his approach to the back of the putting surface, where the slope eased the ball down towards the hole. He then knocked in his eagle putt from around five feet.
