But the story of the day belonged to Joonas Granberg of Finland, who shot a course equalling record of 62 highlighted by an eagle on the 18th hole to lie one shot behind Chan, who leads on nine under par.

Karlberg, a two-time winner on the Asian Tour, also shot an eagle on the last hole for a 69 to sit in third place on 135 at the Macau Golf and Country Club.

Asian Tour honorary member Jeev Milkha Singh of India, playing in his first Macau Open since 1999, returned with 68 to share fourth place with highly rated Thanyakon Khrongpha of Thailand and Australian Adam Groom, who both carded 66 and 69 respectively for 136.
