England's Georgia Hall has taken control of the Saudi Ladies International but Australian star Steph Kyriacou is among her pursuers -- albeit seven shots off the pace.

Hall enjoyed a brilliant moving day in the third round of the $1 million Ladies European Tour event, firing a four-under 68 to be 10 under and five shots clear going into the final round.

The 2018 Women's Open champion, who had shared the lead on the first two days at the Royal Greens Golf and Country Club, has three-time major winner Anna Nordqvist (69) as her nearest challenger.

Nordqvist's fellow Swede Johanna Gustavsson (67) and Czech Kristyna Napoleaova (74) are six behind.

Kyriacou carded a level-par 72 in the third round to remain at three under and sit in a shre of fifth.

Sydneysider Kyriacou failed to capitalise on her brilliant second round of 66, managing just one birdie on Saturday.
