Paul McGinley made nine birdies in a five-under 67 to go into the final round of the Staysure PGA Seniors Championship just three strokes behind Australian David McKenzie.

The Dublin (52) was five-under for his round with two holes to go at London Golf Club in Kent before he recovered from a double-bogey six at the 16th with two birdies to finish.

He's alone in sixth place on 11-under par in his quest for a maiden win as a Senior.

McKenzie, who pre-qualified the day day after finishing fifth in the Senior Open, is the man to catch after he shot a four-under 68 to lead by one stroke on 13-under par from South Africa's James Kingston, who shot 64.

Mark McNulty shot 69 to move up to 25th on four-under with Des Smyth tied 40th on one-under after a 73
