Maybank Championship: Westwood in contention in Kuala Lumpur

England’s Lee Westwood remains in contention at the Maybank Championship in Malaysia after carding a two-under-par 70 in the third round.

Westwood, seeking his first title since 2014, was one shot off the lead at the halfway stage after a second-round 62.

He goes into today’s final day on 12 under – three behind Spain’s Jorge Campillo and Dylan Frittelli of South Africa, who both carded six-under 66.

Scotland’s Marc Warren (69) is joint fifth on 13 under.

Japan’s Ryo Ishikawa had nine birdies in a bogey-free 63 to leap up the leaderboard and join Warren two off the pace.
