Spanish qualifier Pablo Larrazabal shot a 4-under-par 67 Saturday and held a three-stroke lead after three rounds of the French Open.
He was at 11-under 202, with Scotland's Colin Montgomerie (68) and Denmark's Soren Hansen (67) sharing second place.

Montgomerie, who won the French Open in 2000, was disappointed about dropping two strokes in the last four holes on Le Golf National's Albatross Course.
