The Dane, who started the day six clear after shooting a course record 62 on Friday, had five birdies in his round.
England's David Horsey, who also carded a 68, is one of five players tied for second on 11 under par.

Willett needs to finish fifth to regain top spot in the Race to Dubai, external from Open winner Henrik Stenson but was joint 48th after a third-round 68.
