SOC:Poston, Gerard lead but face marathon final day in Ohio

J.T. Poston and Ryan Gerard were tied for the lead at the PGA Tour's prestigious Memorial when a second bout of bad weather arrived and wiped out the rest of the third round before it had time to take shape.

It might have come at a good time for world No.1 Scottie Scheffler, who was making quite a charge until two bogeys in three holes, the last one from an iron off the tee into a creek.

And it probably won't help the players like Poston who face a long Sunday to make up for the lost time and then face playing 36 holes of US Open qualifying on Monday.

Poston and Gerard were tied at nine-under par through five holes, one shot ahead of fellow American Sam Burns, who was through six holes.
