Martin Kaymer (-18) is the undisputed leader of the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship HSBC after the third day. The German will start tomorrow with a tasty margin of five strokes over Rory McIlroy. Just a couple of things that prevent us from securing strongly that the last day will be a walk down the Champs Elysees to the Teutonic …

One: if someone is able to string a birdie after another and finished the tournament with a scandal is Vueltona McIlroy. Bad enemy to anyone.

Two: a gray day will need to have good Kaymer in the Abu Dhabi Golf Club. Makes ‘sixty-odd’ like hotcakes. Today ended on the 18th hole with a kind of nervous smile, shy, as if to say I do not really know why, but I get around this field.

To wit: in five editions have been only three winners. Chris DiMarco won in 2006, and then alternately did Casey (2007), Martin Kaymer (2008), Casey (2009) and again Kaymer (2010). In this series unheard and unprecedented in the world of golf, the German should give back the control to English.

Although well regarded, may be the name of Kaymer which have to be taken more into account, as in recent editions has been 1, 2 and 1, in that order … A real bestiality.
