    Graeme McDowell and Gareth Maybin of Northern Ireland took a four-stroke lead at the Andalucia Masters on Saturday after a windy third round sent scores soaring.

    McDowell, the U.S. Open champion, shot a 1-over 72, while Maybin had a 70 to reach 6 under. Conditions were so difficult at Valderrama that only six players were under par at the end of a day that began with 13 in minus territory.

    Damien McGrane of Ireland shot a 70 to reach 2 under and grab a share of third with Miguel Angel Jimenez of Spain, who had a 71.

    Martin Kaymer, who needs to win or finish second to take Tiger Woods' place atop the world rankings, improved on his first two rounds, but his 70 still left him nine shots off the lead on the course that staged the 1997 Ryder Cup.
