Shenzhen: The third round of the China Open was canceled Saturday because of thunder and lightning.
The European Tour announced it will now be a 54-hole event, with Sunday’s final round being played in a two-tee, three-ball format starting at 8am local time.
Sebastian Soderberg of Sweden leads on 16 under par and holds a three-shot advantage over Paul Waring of England at Hidden Grace Golf Club.
Soderberg did not hit a shot on Saturday.
Only two groups got underway before play was initially suspended at 8:18am local time because of the dangerous situation caused by lightning in the area.
