The Alfred Dunhill Championship will be played over 54 holes after barely two hours’ play was possible on Saturday due to thunderstorms and flooding in Johannesburg.<\/p>\n
The leading groups had yet to begin their third round when, after repeated stoppages, play was abandoned for the day at 2.30pm local time.<\/p>\n
Tournament director David Williams said: “It\u2019s tough when you have to do this but we suspended twice this morning and the course became unplayable very quickly.<\/p>\n
“Because it\u2019s been raining throughout the day and there is more on its way, we\u2019ve taken the decision to suspend the third round.<\/p>\n
“We\u2019re going to restart tomorrow at 6.30am. There\u2019s still about five or six games to tee off, but the third round will be the final round.”<\/p>\n
Spain\u2019s Eugenio Chacarra \u2013 at 15 under par \u2013 remains two strokes clear of nearest challenger Jayden Schaper. England\u2019s John Parry is 12 under alongside Schaper\u2019s fellow South African Branden Grace.<\/p>\n
