Grace and Colsaerts lead by one in South Africa postneurotic
Belgium's Nicolas Colsaerts and South African Branden Grace share the lead after the third round of the Volvo Golf Champions event at The Links at Fancourt in George, South Africa.
Both men finished on 10-under par after Saturday's play despite having contrasting individual rounds.
Colsaerts finished with a four-under par 69 after eagling the par-five 18th to finish on top with Grace, whose topsy-turvy back nine -- which included two double bogeys and four birdies -- meant he finished the day with a two-over par round of 75.

'I just had a couple unlucky shots that didn't bounce anyway in the fairways and got into pot bunkers and it happened on the tough holes which is a bit unfortunate., Grace said, EuropeanTour.com reported.
'But otherwise, I'm still really happy with the way I played and I thought I handled it really good. It was a long day so I'm still pleased to be at the top,' he added, European Tour reported.
The South African, who was at the European Tour qualifying school only last month, now has the chance to claim back-to-back victories after triumphing at the Joburg Open last week.
