Cabrera-Bello, Hanson, Nilsson, Aguilar level with nine to play in Portugal

Four players were tied for the lead with nine holes to play in the Portugal Masters at Oceanico Victoria.

Overnight leader Rafael Cabrera-Bello had been caught by Swedes Peter Hanson and Christian Nilsson as well as Chilean Felipe Aguilar.

They were all 19 under par, one ahead of Frenchman Gregory Havret, who set the clubhouse target with a 64, and England’s David Lynn, who had one to go, while Dane Thomas Bjorn was two back after 10.
