Kieffer leads as darkness halts third round in Oman

MUSCAT, Oman — Maximilian Kieffer played just three holes at the Oman Open on Saturday. He finished the day in the outright lead.

The German was one of only 11 players to finish their second rounds on Friday before play was called off for the day because of sandstorms.

When the second round was completed early Saturday, Kieffer was in a share of the lead with Joachim B. Hanson of Denmark.

The leaders managed only three holes of their third rounds before darkness brought an end to play, with Kieffer making three pars and Hanson making double bogey as well as a birdie.
