    Golfer Daniel Hillier is four shots of the lead after the third round at the Australian Open in Melbourne

    Golfer Daniel Hillier is four shots of the lead after the third round at the Australian Open in Melbourne


    The Wellingtonian's rebounded from an early double bogey to produce a four-under par effort - taking him to 10-under for the tournament.

    Hillier made six birdies, including four straight between holes 11 and 14.

    Ryan Fox has also bounced back from a tough front nine to card another even-par round and be eight shots off the pace at six-under overall.

    He had four straight bogeys between holes two and five - but made four birdies over the last 13 holes.
