Shenzhen International 2016: Saturday Leaderboard Scores and Highlights

Soomin Lee holds a two-shot lead heading into Sunday’s action after the third round of the 2016 Shenzhen International was suspended due to darkness Saturday. Callum Shinkwin is second after making a serious charge with a 10-under 62.

Brandon Stone and Lee Slattery are both four shots back with six holes left in their third rounds at the Genzon Golf Club. In all, there are 10 players within six shots of Lee’s lead with about a round and a half left to play Sunday.
