ALFRED DUNHILL LINKS CHAMPIONSHIP
LOWRY MOVES UP AFTER RAIN DELAY
FROM THE EUROPEAN TOUR WEBSITE
Raphaël Jacquelin’s slender halfway lead
had been erased before he had the chance to tee off during the rain-delayed
third round of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
Heavy rain overnight and into Saturday morning forced a delay of one hour at all three courses - Carnoustie, Kingsbarns and the Old Course at St Andrews - used for the pro-am event.
At nine under par, France's Jacquelin had led by one over Irish pair Shane Lowry and Padraig Harrington, England's Oliver Wilson and compatriot Alexander Levy.
But Lowry made a birdie on the 12th - his third hole - at Carnoustie to move to nine under par.
World Number One Rory McIlroy had also birdied the third hole at St Andrews to improve to five under as he seeks his fifth win of the season at the venue where he will defend his Open Championship title next July.
