Joe Dean of England shared the lead with Grant Forrest of Scotland at the Spanish Open on Saturday, both scoring 13-under par 200. Dean had an impressive round with eight birdies but struggled on holes 16 and 17, making double bogey and another bogey respectively. He salvaged his round with a 30-foot birdie putt on the final hole. Forrest recorded a 67 to match Dean's score. The pair led by one shot over Victor Perez, Joel Girrbach, and Jacob Skov Olesen as they prepare for Sunday’s final round. A victory would likely secure Dean a spot in the top 10 of the Race to Dubai and almost guarantee him a PGA Tour card for 2027, following his first European title win at the British Masters just six weeks prior.
