Ogilvy still in front

stroke lead over fellow Australian Adam Scott when play was suspended due to heavy rain in the WGC-CA Championship third round on Saturday.
World number one Tiger Woods, 11 under par through 11 holes, was in a group three shots behind Ogilvy along with Fijian Vijay Singh and Tim Clark of South Africa.
Woods was level-par for his round after three-putting for a bogey at the second and birdying the par-four seventh. Singh displayed top form and was eight under for his round with two holes to go.
Play stopped at 1315 local time (1715 GMT) because of rain and thunder.
Three hours later organizers called it off for the day, with several greens under water, leaving the third round to be completed at 0830 local time on Sunday.
Off-days for Woods are rare and Scott was frustrated the weather spoilt a chance to capitalise. “If it was our day then it was cut off way too short,” the Australian told reporters.
Ogilvy, the 2006 US Open champion, was 14-under overall following birdies at the seventh and ninth but was not happy with his performance. “I wasn't hitting the ball great this morning. I felt like I missed every fairway I played,” he said.
Scott was in excellent shape after firing a four-under 32 on the front nine including an explosive start as he sank a 16-foot putt for an eagle three at the first.
It was the perfect response to his disappointing ending to Friday's round when he bogeyed the final two holes. “I thought if I could get off to a fast start I could kind of wipe that bad finish out and get right back in the hunt,” said Scott.
Woods, chasing his 10th win in 11 tournaments worldwide, was disappointed with his putting. “I need to hit the ball a touch better but most importantly make some putts and get my speed right,” he said.
“I am only three back, still right there and there are a lot of holes to be played on Sunday, hopefully I can get it going and get hot for the rest of the day.”
With several of the leaders having 25 holes to play on Sunday, the event is wide open.
Singh posted seven birdies but the highlight of his round was an eagle three at the 12th where he bludgeoned a 263-yard approach within nine feet of the cup and holed out.
Clark had seven birdies in his round and was five under on the front nine. __
