The third round of the Genesis Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland, is halted because of fog. As play stops mid-round, Matt Fitzpatrick takes a share of the lead, according to multiple reports. Rory McIlroy is positioned as the notable player losing ground, with coverage describing him as out of sorts and slipping out of contention during the unfinished stage of the tournament. All outlets emphasize that the stoppage is caused by fog, which disrupts scheduling and prevents completion of the third round as normal. With play suspended, the leaderboard is set for the moment at a shared top position for Fitzpatrick, while McIlroy remains further back than earlier in the week. The reports provide consistent accounts that the fog has a direct impact on the progression of day three, leaving the tournament in a paused state and setting up a later restart to finish the round and determine how the lead changes.
