England's Joe Dean and Scotland's Grant Forrest share a one-shot lead going into the final round of the Open de Espana in Madrid. Forrest, who began the day with a one-shot advantage at the Real Club de Campo Villa de Madrid, slipped down the leaderboard after bogeying the fifth hole. However, birdies at the 11th, 14th and 16th gave the Scot a four-under-par round of 67 and a total of 13 under.

Dean, a former delivery driver, followed five birdies on the front nine with three more at the 12th, 14th and 15th to open up a three-shot lead, but then double-bogeyed the 16th and dropped another shot at 17 before finishing on a high with a 31-foot putt for birdie on the last. France's Victor Perez and Dane Jacob Skov Olesen both also posted rounds of 65 to move to 12 under, one shot off the lead, alongside Joel Girrbach of Switzerland. Angel Ayora is the leading Spanish hope and he sits three shots off the lead after a 66 on a day of low scoring.
