VYSOKY UJEZD, Czech Republic - Thomas Pieters birdied his final hole Saturday to take a one-shot lead into the final round of the Czech Masters.

Two shots off the lead after the second round, the Belgian golfer had a strong start on the front nine. He recovered from a bogey on the third hole with four straight birdies and added an eagle on the par-5 9th to top the leaderboard.

But the 2015 Czech Masters champion opened the back nine with another bogey and had to wait until the birdie on the 18th to regain the lead and close at 6-under 66 for a 16-under 200 total at the Albatross Golf Resort near Prague.
