Ben Eoin, Nova Scotia (Sports Network) – Joel Dahmen shot 3-under-par 69 on Friday to maintain his lead at the suspended Celtic Classic.<\/p>\n
Dahmen moved to 13-under-par 131 for the tournament before play was suspended due to darkness at the Lakes Golf Club with one group left to finish its second round.<\/p>\n
The second round will resume at 6 a.m. ET Saturday and the third round will begin at 7:10 a.m. off the first tee in threesomes.<\/p>\n
Dahmen holds a 3-stroke lead over Stephen Gangluff, who shot 68 to reach 10- under-par 134 through 36 holes.<\/p>\n
David Skinns shot 68 to move into solo third place at 9-under, one stroke ahead of Mackenzie Hughes (69), Hugo Leon (66) and Ryan Williams (68).<\/p>\n
Dahmen held a comfortable lead for much of the day thanks to five birdies and an eagle, although he did trip to a pair of bogeys and closed his round with a double-bogey 6 at the ninth (his 18th).<\/p>\n
“Dinner’s going to have a little sour taste to it after a double on the last, but I’m hitting it really well and I feel good about my game,” said Dahmen. “I’m happy with the way I hit the ball and chipped whenever I did miss a green over the first two days.”<\/p>\n
NOTES: Dahmen’s 3-stroke lead is tied for the largest 36-hole lead on PGA Tour Canada this season … Dahmen is seeking his first career win on the PGA Tour Canada. He has a pair of top-10 finishes this season … Brady Schnell is in position to become the only player to make the 36-hole cut in every PGA Tour Canada event this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
