Jon Rahm will take a one-shot lead going into the final round of the DP World Tour Championship.

The Spaniard, who is looking to win the tour's season-ending event for the third time, shot a magnificent round of seven under par 65 on Saturday to lead Matthew Fitzpatrick by a stroke.

Meanwhile, Sweden's Alex Noren is two shots off the lead on 13 under par, with world number one Rory McIlroy also in the mix on 12 under.

Overnight leader Tyrrell Hatton struggled to even par round of 72 to sit three shots behind Rahm.
