Jimmy Gunn struggling in Bahamas

Jimmy Gunn, like all the other competitors in the Web.com Tour event, the Bahamas Great Exuma Classic, at Sandals, Emerald Bay in the Bahamas, has yet to finish his third round
Darkness fell early and some players had to complete their second rounds in the morning so, in the end, the organisers ran out of time.

Dornoch-born Gunn is five over par for his third round with four holes to play. He birdied the first and 10th but had a double bogey 6 at the 14th and also dropped shots at the second, fifth, eighth, ninth and 12th.
His earlier scores were 79 and 72 for 151.
