Rookie Aman Raj made a fine move up the leaderboard with a round of five-under 67 in the third round of the PGM Penang Championship.

Aman Raj (73-70-67) at six-under 210 and Feroz Singh Garewal (73-70-70) were the two Indians making the cut as the third Indian, Samarth Dwivedi missed out.

The trio, who have been gaining experience, playing the Asian Development Tour have been performing well over the past couple of tournaments.

Australian Adam Blyth placed himself in clear sight of the PGM Penang Championship title after carding a third round of five-under-par 67 to lead by one shot at the Penang Golf Club on Friday.
 

The 34-year-old Blyth, playing on a sponsor's invite this week, rolled in a 35-footer for eagle on third before adding four birdies against a lone bogey to sit atop the leaderboard on 14-under-par 202 total at the RM200,000 (approximately US$46,600) event.

American John Michael O'Toole, who broke the course record earlier with an opening 64, returned with a 66 to share second place with Thailand's Wisut Artjanawat (67) at the PGM Penang Championship, which is the Tour's second stop in Penang this season.

Overnight leader Nick Sherwood of the United States posted a 70 to slip to fourth place on 204 while Order of Merit leader Pavit Tangkamolprasert of Thailand, who is chasing for a record sixth victory on the region's burgeoning Tour, sits a further shot back in fifth following a 68.
