Golf: Under-par Lane keeps show on the road
Barry Lane, 'hot, shaky, weak and lethargic' at the start of the day, perked up after taking some tablets given to him by a marshal to retain the lead after three rounds of the Balearic Open yesterday and on course for his fourth European tour title. Lane fought off the effects of his cold to return a 66 for a 16-under-par aggregate of 200, and will go into the final day five clear of Jim Payne, Spain's Jose Rivero and the South African Wayne Westner. Lane, who makes his US Masters debut next month, took control with four birdies in five holes around the turn.
