Fabrizio Zanotti joined Joost Luiten and Bernd Wiesberger in a share of the lead as the final round of the Lyoness Open powered by Greenfinity began in Austria.
Defending champion Luiten began the day with a two shot lead over local favourite and 2012 winner Wiesberger, was caught when he bogeyed the second after the Austrian had birdied the par five opener at Diamond Country Club.
Wiesberger then delighted the galleries by going in front with another gain at the third, but Luiten squared things at the fourth with a birdie of his own.
Any thoughts of a two-horse race were quickly extinguished at the fifth, however.
Luiten found water off the tee, and Wiesberger failed to take advantage as he hit his drive into troublesome thick rough down the left with both carding bogey fives.
That allowed Paraguay’s Zanotti – seeking a first European Tour title – to join the leading group on ten under par after three birdies in his first four holes.
England’s Lee Slattery and Sweden’s halfway leader Mikael Lundberg were two shots adrift on eight under.
