Jimenez out in front in Dubai

Miguel Angel Jimenez moved into a one-shot lead midway through the final round of the Dubai Desert Classic with the Spaniard locked in a see-saw battle with fellow overnight leaders Lee Westwood, compatriot Alvaro Quiros and Thongchai Jaidee.

Jimenez played the opening 10 holes in level par to stay at 11 under, with European number one Westwood and Quiros one over for the day at the turn.
