Levet eyes Tour win

The 38-year-old Frenchman is still recovering from a vertigo problem so bad he told his wife she might have to start working again.
But despite his daily battle with fatigue Levet goes into the final round of the BMW International Open in Munich in joint third place, only two behind Swede Niclas Fasth and Portugal Jose-Filipe Lima.
Levet, tied with England's Nick Dougherty and 47-year-old South African David Frost, was absolutely livid with himself at the end, though.
Having climbed into a share of the lead with five birdies in eight holes he bogeyed the short 17th and then dropped another shot at the 568-yard last, a hole which Dougherty had just eagled with a 15-foot putt.
"I was stupid at the last hole and so was my caddie," he said after putting his tee shot into sand and then finding rough. "No way should you hit driver.
"It's such a pity. I made a super comeback and it was all going my way, but then I let it go."
He had to be content with a level par 72, while Lima returned a 70 and halfway leader Fasth a 73.
