MacIntyre leads as storm-delayed Texas Open heads for marathon finish
Robert MacIntyre held a two-shot lead when storms halted play, setting up a Sunday finish that could require some players to complete 30 holes.
Robert MacIntyre leads the Texas Open at 15 under par, but storms forced the PGA Tour to suspend Saturday's third round at TPC San Antonio's Oaks Course.
Entering the day with a commanding lead, MacIntyre saw his advantage narrowed as Ludvig Aberg birdied the first two holes and matched him at the fifth before storms halted play.
Ludvig Aberg narrowed the gap to 13 under through six holes, while Japan's Ryo Hisatsune and England's Marco Penge moved into contention on the leaderboard.
Tournament organizers expect a marathon finish Sunday, with some players facing 30 holes to complete the tournament before the Masters begins next week at Augusta National.
Marco Penge is among 15 players in the Masters field making their debut at Augusta National, while Matt Wallace climbed into a share for third at 7 under through 14 holes.
