Indian golfer Shubhankar Sharma didn't perform well in the third round, scoring 1-over 72. This caused him to drop from a tied-2nd position to tied-14th in the Acciona Open de Espana on Sunday.

Sharma had a tough day with three bogeys and a double bogey, despite managing four birdies. His total score over three days is now 9-under, and he needs to achieve good results to secure a spot in the season-ending DP World Tour Championships.

On the other hand, Manu Gandas missed the cut and didn't advance in the competition.

In the same event, Matthieu Pavon held a two-shot lead going into the final round after consistently performing well, including a 66 in the third round. The 30-year-old French golfer had a strong start with an opening round of 63 and maintained his lead, reaching a total score of 16 under after 54 holes. Although he's looking for his first win on the World Tour, Pavon has already secured two victories on the Alps Tour and finished as the runner-up three times on both the European Challenge and World Tours.

England's Nathan Kimsey was the closest competitor, trailing by two strokes after scoring 65 in the third round. He was followed by local favorite Alfredo Garcia-Heredia, French players Romain Langasque and Mike Lorenzo-Vera, and South African Zander Lombard.

Kimsey has achieved success in the Qualifying School and the Road To Mallorca but is still seeking his first win on the World Tour, having lost in a play-off at the Barbasol Championship to Vincent Norrman.

Other notable players at 11 under included Dane Marcus Helligkilde, Spaniard Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano, Frenchman Julien Guerrier, and England's Eddie Pepperell. Dan Bradbury also made a noteworthy accomplishment with his third hole-in-one of the season, achieved with a 226-yard four iron at the third hole.
