Jones, of Hambrook Golf Range, leads Cardiff's Adam Constable and overnight leader, North Wales' Andrew Barnett, by two shots after their respective rounds of 73 and 74. It was another tough test of the players' skill in South Wales South Wales south n → sud m du Pays de Galles , with only two players breaking par. Vale of Llangollen's Lee Rooke and Bridgend pro Rhys Davies both produced scores of 69 and lie four and five shots off the lead respectively.

Barnett and Oakdale's Matthew Griffiths - the latter tied for 15th on seven over par - have already booked their spot and Constable and Rooke are battling for the final place. They both need to win the tournament or finish second should Barnett take the title. Constable said: "My game wasn't so good today. I played OK in parts but I didn't putt so well. "The conditions were very tricky - it's very windy and the greens have taken a lot of water." On the prospect of representing his country he added: "It was one of my goals at the start of the season. "I'm passionate about playing for Wales. "Obviously there is also a big winners cheque and to win your National Championships at your home club would be one of my greatest achievements. "Hopefully I can play well in the final round and be in the mix coming down the last few holes." The event, which has a pounds 42,500 prize fund, has an added incentive as the leading non-exempt player will also earn a place alongside Europe's elite at next year's Wales Open at the Celtic Manor and entry into the Vale of Glamorgan's Wales Challenge. The PGA was first competed for in 1904 and has had some notable winners including Ian Woosnam, Brian Huggett and Sid Mouland.
