Patrick Reed Leads Qatar Masters by Two Shots, Eyes Second Title
Patrick Reed holds a two-shot lead entering the final round of the Qatar Masters. He aims for his second title on the DP World Tour in just three weeks. Reed has transitioned to playing regularly on the European-based circuit following his departure from LIV Golf. He won’t return to the PGA Tour until August.
Reed’s Current Standing
After carding a two-under, bogey-free 70 on Saturday, Reed now sits at 14 under par. His consistent performance included one birdie on each nine. Last month, he secured a victory at the Dubai Desert Classic and narrowly missed out on another win in a playoff at the Bahrain Championship.
Challengers Behind Reed
The closest competitor to Reed is Jacob Skov Olesen, who fired a four-under 68 to reach 12 under. Olesen showcased his abilities by picking up five birdies, three of which came in the final four holes. Spain’s Angel Ayora and Australia’s Daniel Hillier are tied for third place at 11 under par.
Notable Performers and Final Round Preview
- Calum Hill (Scotland) and Daniel Bradbury (England) are among a six-way tie for ninth at nine under par.
- Sweden’s Sebastian Soderberg delivered the round of the day, shooting a remarkable seven-under 65.
Soderberg’s impressive round included an eagle at the par-4 tenth hole, showcasing his skill in challenging conditions. The final round of the Qatar Masters will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Golf starting at 8:30 am on Sunday.
