Harry Lord (Rossendale, England) was 12-under across an 18-hole span to take a two-stroke lead as the third round was suspended for darkness Saturday at the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas Wichita Open presented by Syndeo. Lord is 14-under total and will resume his third round on No. 12 Sunday morning at Crestview Country Club.
From his fifth hole in his second round (No. 14) to his fourth hole of his third round (No. 4), Lord made eight birdies and two eagles to move atop the leaderboard. The 25-year-old Englishman carded rounds of 67-64 and is 5-under through 11 holes in his third round, and he leads by two over Josh Anderson (Scottsdale, Arizona).
Anderson opened with an 8-under 62 on Thursday, which featured six hours of weather delays, and did not play Friday due to flooding on the course that caused a seven-hour delay. He played 28 holes on Saturday – a second-round 66, followed by even-par over 10 holes in his third round.
Corey Pereira (Sacramento, California), the No. 2 player on the PGA TOUR Americas points list, is tied for third with Jack Lundin (Sioux Falls, South Dakora) and Mats Ege (Kristiansand, Norway).
Once the third round concludes Sunday, players will be re-paired based on score and final-round tee times will be approximately 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. off Nos. 1 and 10 tees.
