Former US Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick will take a two-shot lead into Sunday's final round of the European Masters where victory should guarantee him a place at the Ryder Cup.

A two-time winner of the Swiss event, the Englishman carded a third-round 67 to move to 15 under par for the tournament.

The 29-year-old, who became the first player since Seve Ballesteros to defend a title at Crans-sur-Sierre with wins in 2017 and 2018, is two clear of Swedes Ludvig Aberg and Alexander Bjork and Scotland's Connor Syme.

Europe captain Luke Donald is set to name his team to face the United States later this month on Monday.
