– under par leads the way heading into the final day for Brandon Stone and Daniel Brooks.
27– holes left for Brooks and 25 for Stone, with stormy weather causing more disruption on moving day.
3– of the 68 players who made the cut have completed their third rounds.
22– the age of the talented Stone, who already has two European Tour top tens to his name.
1– European Tour win in his career for Brooks, who triumphed at the rain-shortened Madeira Islands Open – Portugal – BPI, in 2014.
7– under par through just 10 holes, Richard Sterne was flying before play was suspended for the day.
1 – commentary stint from South African legend Ernie Els, who enjoyed some of the golf on show:

6– under for his last five holes of his second round helped Chris Hanson recover from one shot outside the cut line, to make it back for round three comfortably.
1– shot. The slender margin by which defending champion Andy Sullivan and tournament host Els missed the cut by.
1– hole left of his third round for Renato Paratore when the horn sounded with the highly-rated Italian five under for the day and six under overall.
