Richard Boxall looks back on the third day of the British Masters and feels Alex Norens sky-high confidence will lead him to his third European Tour victory of the season at The Grove. Alex Noren was excellent today. A 65 with no bogeys, although he had to work quite hard to save par a few times. Hes had two wins already this year and is up to ninth on the Race to Dubai, so hes full of confidence. Alex Noren is so full of confidence, he will be tough to catch on Sunday Armed with a three-shot lead going into the final round, hell be a heavy favourite to pick up win number three. The way hes playing, hes not going to come back to the field. So for anybody to catch up with him, theyre going to have to go very low on Sunday. Richard Bland is three back, and theres a bunch of guys on 12 under that, realistically, need to shoot at least a 67 to have any chance. I cant see Noren being over par for his final round. The chasing pack will hope he makes a few mistakes, but the way hes been playing, I cant see it. Noren had to work hard for a few pars on occasion, but he finished with three birdies in four holes The opening hole is a reasonably short par-four, and the second is a very reachable par-five which has been the second-easiest hole this week, playing to an average of 4.6. If he gets through those in one under, hell be well set.Graeme McDowell made a great move today, three straight birdies around the turn and all of a sudden he was one off the lead. But he struggled to get the ball close to the hole after that and it puts a lot of pressure on your putting. And when he did hit it close, he didnt take advantage. Graeme McDowell had a purple patch around the turn, but a three-putt bogey at the last was damaging It was a shame to take the gloss off a good day by three-putting the last to drop a shot, but saving par is tricky when you knock it in the bunker up the 18th.G-Mac is now six behind and its a massive ask to come back from there.Lee Westwood is one shot better off, but hell need to get off to a flyer to put the pressure on. If he, or anyone else on 10 on 11 under, can get to four under after six or seven holes, theres still a chance. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. The crowd following the last group today was huge, mainly because Andrew Johnston was among them. He started the day one off the lead, but unfortunately he just had one of those days. He was two over after six holes and had to wait until the 11th before he got his first birdie, but then he double-bogeyed the next.Beef got round in 73 and hes now eight shots behind, so Id be shocked if he came away from here with a win. But hes still living up to his reputation, and he remains a firm favourite with the fans. Beef was still smiling despite a disappointing 73 And despite having a poor round, he was still happy to take part in the live Masterclass afterwards, and that shows what kind of character he is.Marcel Siem is 89th on the Race to Dubai after a disappointing season, but what a finish from him today. Five under for the last six holes for a 65 threw him into the mix. Hes five behind, but its always tough to follow up a great round with another. When you finish like that, you just want to carry on playing straight into round four. But Norens finish was almost as impressive, with birdies at 15, 17 and 18 rounding off a superb day for the Swede.Highlight of the dayNorens second shot to the 12th was incredible. Horrible stance in the bunker, ball way above his feet, water short of the green, but he knocked it to 15 feet. And that was moments after he had seen Beef put his second in the drink. Norens second to the 12th was one of the shots of the tournament Im not sure there would be too many players who would have taken that shot on to be honest. When youre standing on a slope in the sand, if your feet move just a bit through the shot, it goes very wrong.That shot was brilliant, and a measure of Norens strength, and also his confidence right now. For me, it looks very likely that hell be picking up win number three of the year on Sunday.You can watch Liverpool v Man Utd, plus Englands tour of Bangladesh and the British Masters on Sky Sports.

The fourth-seeded Dimitrov is the first Bulgarian to lift the title, and also the first player this year to win titles on three different surfaces after claiming victories in Acapulco on hardcourt and Bucharest on clay. At age 32, 10th-seeded Lopez was attempting to become the oldest winner of the tournament since 33-year old Tony Roche defeated John McEnroe in the 1978 final, and to win his first title since Eastbourne one year ago. "Of course, Im really happy with the win," said Dimitrov. "Obviously I knew what I had to do today out on the court, and Feli is one of those competitors that when it comes to fast surfaces, hes always very tricky to play. "Down match point in the second set wasnt the coolest thing, but, you know, I just fought hard. I just left everything out on the court." In a match that featured few rallies and even fewer break point opportunities, Dimitrov dropped only four points on serve in the first set bbut failed to convert two break points to lead 4-2.dddddddddddd Lopez went on to claim the tiebreaker on his fourth set point and games went comfortably with serve in the second set until the Spaniard held a match point on his opponents serve at 6-5. Dimitrov survived that crisis and then swept the tiebreaker for the loss of just one point, but a forehand volley by Lopez gave the Spaniard a break in the opening game of the final set. The Bulgarian got back on level terms at 4-4 when Lopez double-faulted, and claimed the tiebreaker on his second match point when Lopez netted a forehand. "I think when you face players like Grigor, you know that even playing the way I played today there is a chance to lose because hes a great player," said Lopez. "He never gives up, as he showed today. "Its tough to lose when you play such a great match, but you have to take it the other way, no? Overall it was a great week for me. It has been a great preparation for Wimbledon, and hopefully in Eastbourne next week I can do well again." Dimitrovs girlfriend, French Open champion Maria Sharapova, was among the spectators at Queens. ' ' '
