Eales feels fine
Paul Eales's target for the weekend at the FNB Players Championship was to get to 16 under par, writes Andy Farrell from Durban. Having started yesterday at five under, he made good progress. He shot a best-of-the- week 65 to get him to 204, 12 under. The only problem is that Wayne Westner has already got to that marker. The South African had a four-shot advantage overnight, and ended with it still intact on 200, after a 67. "He is playing well and he obviously likes the course," said Eales, who is two clear of Argentina's Jose Coceres in third. In the Kenya Open in Nairobi, Mike Miller, who lost his PGA European Tour card last season, is on the verge of a maiden victory after a third-round 66 established a four-stroke lead.
