Henning holds on to narrow lead

Second round leader Nic Henning of South Africa maintained his lead after the third round of the South African Players Championship at the Royal Cape Golf Club on Saturday with an even par 72 to finish at 10-under par.

He leads fellow South Africans Ernie Els and Roger Wessels by one stroke.

Wessels had the round of the day with

an impressive 68 in trying conditions as the notorious South-Easter wind arrived in the Cape after two days of near perfect conditions.
