Phil Mickelson moved two shots clear of England’s Ross Fisher after three rounds of the HSBC Champions Tournament in Shanghai. Mickelson had a mixed front nine but still turned around with a one shot-lead halfway through the third round of the $5 million (2.4 million pound) event on Saturday.

Mickelson, ranked world number two, hit a 68, matched by Fisher, to stand on 14-under.

The best round of the day came from Fisher’s compatriot and Ryder Cup star, Paul Casey, who chipped in three times for a 66 which secured him third spot at 11-under.

Overnight leader Kevin Stadler fell away after only managing to card a 73 to be 10-under, three strokes clear of a group containing Open champion Padraig Harrington and three-time major winner Vijay Singh.

THIRD ROUND LEADERBOARD:
-14 P Mickelson (US)
-12 R Fisher (Eng)
-11 P Casey (Eng)
-10 K Stadler (US)
