The 25-year-old was given an excellent lead-out by Bahrain-McLaren teammates Heinrich Haussler and Mark Cavendish before pipping Reinardt Janse van Rensburg on the line after the 119km ride from King Saud University.

Bauhaus now leads former pace-setter Rui Costa by three seconds in the overall standings with two stages remaining.

Friday's fourth stage is a hilly 137km run from Wadi Namar Park back to King Saud University.
