Jeju Island, South Korea: Australian Matt Griffin was on course for his second OneAsia title in the space of a year after hitting a par 72 to gain a one-shot lead in the penultimate round of the SK Telecom Open.
A stiff wind and late afternoon rain interrupted two days of perfect weather, wreaking havoc on the field with only 10 players breaking par at the 6,732 metre (7,361 yard) course on South Korea’s Jeju Island.
Griffin, who won the Charity High1 Resort Open in September, stood 13 under overall and a stroke clear of Korean veteran Kang Wook-Soon despite the Asian’s fine score of 67, which was the day’s best round at the one billion won ($900,000) tournament. AFP
