Tournament Director David Williams said: “We were left with no choice but to suspend play at 13:30 after constant and heavy downpours of rain throughout the morning and early afternoon.
“Unfortunately, the golf course just could not take any more water and had started to flood, making it impossible to continue the third round on schedule. We are planning to resume the third round at 09:00 on Sunday morning, and, depending on the golf course and the weather forecast, will take a decision on if and when the fourth round can take place.”
