Viktor Hovland fired a bogey-free 64 on moving day to take a three shot lead into the final round of the BMW International Open at Golfclub München Eichenried.

Hovland has won twice on the PGA Tour, at the WGC - Workday Championship and the Saudi International, and could become the first Norwegian winner in European Tour history with a win on Sunday.

"Growing up I mainly grew up watching the European Tour every Saturday and Sunday morning, that was my routine."

Henrik Bjornstad, the only Norwegian who had ever held the 54 hole lead previously, went on to finish second at the 2002 Hong Kong Open.

"We've had some runner up finishes in the past and it would be really cool for Norway to get our first win," said Hovland.

"I'm just trying to stay within myself. Obviously I look at the leaderboard to see where I'm at but instead of trying to force things, I just tell myself at the start of the day that if I just take control of my own game and don't waste shots here and there, just play smart and trust that I'm doing the right things then I think I should have a really good shot tomorrow."

Jorge Campillo shot a 67 and lies in second place one shot ahead of a bogey-free Darren Fichardt (65).

Overnight leader Niall Kearney shot a 72 to tie for fourth alongside Bernd Wiesberger (70).
