Three tied for Singapore Open lead

SINGAPORE, Oct. 31 (UPI) -- Ian Poulter, Thomas Levet and Kodai Ichihara shared the lead Saturday when the third round of the Singapore Open was suspended because of bad weather.

Play was halted Saturday by a third straight day of inclement weather.

Poulter, a native of Hitchin, England, shot 7-under-par 64, giving him a five-stroke lead after the suspended second round, but he dropped four strokes in the first six holes in the third, allowing France's Levet and Japan's Ichihara to join him at the top of the leader board through 17 holes.

"I'm going to try and play for a win (Sunday) as I'm in a good position," a confident Ichihara said.

"I can only think about trying to play well here and to stay in the moment because this golf course is really tough and you need to be patient here," said Levet, who made four straight pars before play ended Saturday.
