"I'm really, really happy with my situation. It's nice when you're hitting good golf shots and enjoying it. Yeah, everything's just good at the minute.
"I just knew that if I just played my own game and kept playing solid golf, I'd be somewhere near where I need to be at the end of the day. And that's how it's worked out."
The 23-year-old Englishman is playing in his third DP World Tour event on a sponsor invite this week. A win on Sunday would secure him a Tour card and a place at The Open Championship next year.
"I've never really been (in this position) before but I've won tournaments - college golf kind of set me up for that, so that's quite nice.
"I don't feel out of place, which is the biggest thing. It's just keeping a positive mindset and believing you should be here and you deserve it."
Finland's Sami Välimäki scored a 66 to move into second place at 16-under.
Daniel van Tonder leads the South African charge two shots behind after closing with a 67 ahead of compatriots Christiaan Bezuidenhout (69) and Casey Jarvis (71) in fourth place at 12-under.
