Aguilar maintains Jakarta lead

JAKARTA, Feb. 16 (UPI) -- A 3-under-par 67 Saturday helped Felipe Aguilar maintain his lead at the Indonesia Open in Jakarta.

The native of Valdivia, Chile, actually increased his 54-hole lead to two strokes. An 8-under 62 Friday had given him a one-stroke advantage at the midpoint.

Through three rounds, Aguilar's total is 16-under 194 with India's Jeev Milkha Singh (65) and Liang Wen-Chong (64) of China tied for second place at 14-under 196.

"It feels pretty good going into tomorrow," said Aguilar, who is on the verge of his first win on the European Tour. "But you never know if you're going to win until the last putt drops."

A bogey at the first hole erased his slim lead but he regained it with 25-foot eagle putt at the par-five ninth.

Austria's Wiegele plummeted down the leader board after three bogeys and a double-bogey in his last six holes left him in a tie for 10th at 10-under 200.
