In a gripping third round at the Abu Dhabi Championship, Jon Rahm has taken the lead, leaving Rory McIlroy to reflect on a missed opportunity. McIlroy, who recorded an impressive eight birdies during the round, found himself unable to match Rahm's score due to a costly double-bogey on the 10th hole.

The final round promises to be a thrilling showdown as both players vie for victory in this prestigious event.S1S2
