After multiple weather-related suspensions on Saturday afternoon, including because of lightning in the area, the third round of the ISCO Championship was halted due to darkness at 9 p.m. ET and is scheduled to continue at 8 a.m. Sunday.
Chan Kim began the day with a five-stroke lead at 11-under par at Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Ky. He was 2 over through 12 holes to stand at 9 under for the tournament. Kim is one stroke behind Paul Peterson, who is 10 under through 15 holes to move four spots up the leaderboard at the PGA Tour alternate event. Twelve players were still on the course trying to complete the third round.
Peterson carded seven birdies at Nos. 2, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11 and 14 to counter bogeys at the par-4 No. 4 and par-3 No. 6. He sank a 20-foot birdie putt at No. 5 between those bogeys.
Kim -- a journeyman who has won 10 titles between the Japan Golf Tour and the Korn Ferry Tour -- is seeking his first PGA Tour triumph. He shot 61 for the first round and 68 in the second.
The leaders had yet to tee off when action was suspended due to lightning in the area at 1:24 p.m. and resumed at 3 p.m. When Kim did get going, he made pars except for a bogey on No. 6 for 1 over on the front nine.
His lone birdie of the limited play came on a 14-inch putt on No. 10, but that was followed by bogeys at the par-4 Nos. 11 and 12 before play was halted.
Play again was suspended due to lightning in the area at 5:10 p.m., and restarted at 7:05 p.m.
Two players are tied for third place at 7 under when darkness fell, Luke List and England's David Skinns.
List completed his round with a bogey-free 5-under 65. He birdied Nos. 2, 7, 8, 10 and 14, including a 26-footer at No. 7.
'Yeah, it's nice to not have to come back in the morning, and I'll get a fresh start whenever we do tee off tomorrow,' List said, adding that he didn't know if that gives him an advantage for the final round. 'It's pretty perfect conditions right now, so some guys, the leaders get to play in a little nicer conditions for longer holes. But it's late, it's a long day for everybody and they'll have an early morning. So I don't know what the weather's going to bring tomorrow, but I'm happy with the way I finished.'
Skinns had an up-and-down 15 holes, with birdies at Nos. 2, 7, 9 and 15, and bogeys at Nos. 4, 6 and 11.
