Everyone chasing Westwood for Dubai title
Nov. 21, 2009 - 12:50 PM ET

Lee Westwood is 15-under-par 66-69-66=201 through three rounds of the Dubai World Championship, maintaining a two-stroke lead over Ross McGowan (71-66-66=203).

Westwood was bogey-free today and has given back just two strokes all week. Moreover, he and McGowan were two of the three that carded the field-low 66s in the third round. A stable of three golfers, including Rory McIlroy and Padraig Harrington, are five strokes off Westwood's pace. Also at stake on Sunday are exemptions into the U.S. and British Opens, awarded to the top-15 and top-30, respectively, in the final Race to Dubai standings.
