Needing a top three finish at Jumeirah Golf Estates to have any chance of grabbing The Race to Dubai crown away from the German, McDowell is down in joint 25th spot after a level par 72.
That was five strokes more than Kaymer, who lies third two shots behind Swede Karlsson as he kept alive the possibility of not only winning The Race to Dubai, but also earning a staggering 2,000,000 on Sunday - and taking the World Number One spot off Lee Westwood.
Karlsson was Europe's Number One two years ago, but then suffered a retina problem and after taking a three-month break did not even make the 60-strong field for this season-ending event.
This is his debut in it therefore and he very nearly kicked off by breaking Westwood's course record.
After an eagle at the long 14th, where he sank a 114 yard pitch, and birdies at the 16th and 17th he stood eight under and needed a four on the 620 yard last for a 63.
