"It was a great round. I played really solid and was able to make a few long putts as well, that helps," said the Spaniard.
"I finished great. Four birdies in a row to finish and I didn’t have a chance to make any bogeys. It was a comfortable round. I hit it very solid and I putted great, so everything worked out really good.
"I’m glad that I’ve won twice, otherwise I’d be quite nervous. Since I know how hard it is to win I just need to have a good day tomorrow and hope nobody else plays great like I did today.
"It’s not going to be easy, I’m going to try and keep playing the way I have been and see if I can make the putts."
Scotland's Robert MacIntyre signed for a 65 to move into solo second place at 12-under ahead of Japan's Masahiro Kawamura (68) and South Africa's Jayden Schaper (69) in third at 11-under.
