FINAL EDIT >>>26/05/02 1am EST
Daniel Rodrigues shot a third-round 68 to share the lead of the 2026 Turkish Airlines Open.
The Portuguese player completed his round shortly before a two-hour stoppage due to lightning in the Antalya area, setting the clubhouse lead at -7, and then watched as his fellow challengers lost ground upon the resumption.
Mikael Lindberg held firm at -7, with the pair one stroke clear of a group of six players sharing third place -6 at National GC. Lindberg said: “It was a weird day. It's a very, very tricky course.
“I felt like I played pretty good the front nine. Unfortunately, I had a couple of three-putts to start the day, but I managed to hole a few there in the middle of the front, so it was good.
“I played well last week, so it's good to see that I'm still playing good golf, so hopefully we can play some good golf tomorrow.”
Rodrigues, the 23-year-old rookie is chasing his first DP World Tour win, with qualification for the US PGA Championship also at stake for the top three finishers on the Asian Swing which concludes with this event.
“I have it in the back of my mind but I don't like to think about it too much.
“I know what's at stake and it's always nice to play for that stuff but at the end of the day, you've got to hit shots for 18 holes and it's a long time and you've just got to do your best. That's it.”
We didn't know if we were going to get rain or thunder or whatever, so the start of the day was not like the other two days that (have been) nice, but just had to do what I kept doing the last couple of days and it was good. It was really good."
Second-round leader De Leo - whose 73 featured no birdies, but three bogeys and a near 100-foot eagle putt at the 14th - and Repetto Taylor were joined at -6 by Wenyi Ding, Ugo Coussaud, Kazuma Kobori and Guido Migliozzi.
