CASTELLON, Spain, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- Michael Jonzon's 6-under-par 65 Saturday gave him a one-stroke after 54 holes at the European Tour's Castello Masters at Castellon, Spain.

The second round was completed Saturday morning after it was suspended by darkness Friday.

Jonzon was tied for fourth place after the suspended second round. He then forged ahead with three birdies on the front nine and three more on the back nine en route to a 16-under, 54-hole total of 197 that left him one stroke in front of defending champion Sergio Garcia (67), a Castellon native, and Germany's Martin Kaymer (68), a second-round co-leader with Garcia.

European Tour rookie Sam Hutsby (66) of England is 14-under 199, alone in fourth.

"I'm enjoying every minute," Hutsby said about his first journey into the media spotlight and just his third professional event. "Hopefully, I can sleep well tonight and then keep to my course management plan (while) under pressure."
