Lucas Herbert is set for a second top-three finish in successive weeks on his lucrative Middle East jaunt - but even the in-form Australian will have his work cut out to catch wire-to-wire leader Abraham Ancer.
Herbert, who finished third in last week's Dubai Desert Classic, is in the same spot in the $US5 million ($A7.2 million) Saudi International going into Sunday's final round of the Asian Tour's flagship event.
But the 27-year-old Victorian has got a seven-shot deficit to make up on Mexican pacesetter Ancer, who's dominated the event from the start at the Royal Greens course in King Abdullah Economic City since opening up on Thursday with a week's-best seven-under par 63.
