Kingston, ON (SportsNetwork.com) – Chris Hemmerich moved two strokes ahead of the field on Saturday with the third round of the Great Waterway Classic suspended due to darkness.<\/p>\n
Hemmerich was 7-under par through 15 holes of round three and stood at 17- under par overall. This is just the third PGA Tour Canada event that Hemmerich has played in.<\/p>\n
Kelvin Day is two strokes off the lead at minus-15. He was 3-under par after 13 holes of his third round at Loyalist Golf and Country Club.<\/p>\n
Tomas Cocha was the clubhouse leader at 14-under-par 202. Cocha fired a 66 on Saturday. He was joined at minus-14 by Michael Gligic, who was 5-under par with one hole to play in his third round.<\/p>\n
Ted Brown (66) and Beon Yeong Lee (67) are tied for fifth at 13-under 203. They were joined there by David Bradshaw, who was minus-3 through 13 holes.<\/p>\n
Micah Burke, who shared the lead with Day when the second round was completed earlier Saturday, was 1-over par through 13 holes. Burke dipped to 11-under par and was tied for 11th.<\/p>\n
Hemmerich got off to a quick start with birdies on the first and third. After a par on No. 4, he converted back-to-back birdies at five and six to get to 14-under.<\/p>\n
The Canadian parred four in a row from the seventh. Hemmerich again made consecutive birdies at 11 and 12. He birdied the 15th to move two clear of Day before play was called for the day.<\/p>\n
Day started with a birdie on the first and followed with a pair of pars. He stumbled to a bogey at the fourth, but came right back with an eagle on the fifth.<\/p>\n
The Englishman moved to 15-under with a birdie on the par-5 seventh. Day parred six consecutive holes from the eighth before play was halted for the day.<\/p>\n
NOTES: Hemmerich finished 35th at the Staal Foundation Open, which was his only other made cut on the PGA Tour Canada … Gligic is the only player in the top seven on the leaderboard that has won on the PGA Tour Canada … The second round was completed earlier Saturday after a lengthy rain delay on Friday morning pushed things back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
