(Reuters) - Former British Open champion Darren Clarke rolled back the years by firing a third round four-under-par 68 to take a share of the lead at the OneAsia China Masters in Nanshan on Saturday.

The 45-year-old, who is looking for his first tournament victory since lifting the Claret Jug at Royal St George's in 2011, was tied with China's Liang Wenchong, who shot a 70 in his third round for an eight-under total.
