Moving day lived up to its reputation on day three of the 3e Actuaries Open in Equatorial Guinea as Englishman Craig Hinton seized control of the tournament after shooting a breath-taking 7-under-par 65 for a new national record.

The 2016 Mena Tour champion was a model of consistency as he tore up the Presidential Course with a stunning round, which featured a back nine of just 31, to lead Sweden’s Peter Gustafsson and Zambia’s Madalitso Muthiya by two at 10-under-par for the tournament.

Here are the day’s highlights.
