The third round of the tournament, which continued at The Club at Carlton Woods (par 72, 6,889 yards) in Woodlands, Texas, announced a temporary suspension at 2:57 p.m. local time on the 20th (4:57 a.m. on the 21st in Korea), and has not resumed for nearly three hours.

Among the players who finished the third round, Shin Ji-ae (35) and Nana Korsz Maseen (Denmark) received the best score card with 6-under 66.

Shin Ji-ae picked out six birdies without a bogey, and four consecutive birdies from the 3rd hole (par 3) to the 6th hole (par 4) were the best.

Shin Ji-ae, who was tied for 49th until the second round the previous day, is currently tied for 9th (5-under 211).

Shin Ji-ae, who moved to the Japan Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour after winning 11 career victories on the LPGA Tour, has won two major titles in the British Women's Open (currently the AIG Women's Open).

At the Chevron Championship, he won the top 10 twice, tied for fifth in 2010 and tied for seventh in 2013.

Brooke Henderson (Canada), ranked 12th in the world with 13 wins on the LPGA Tour, left the course with eight strokes fewer than the 18th hole (par 5).

Henderson, who started tied for 21st, saved as many as nine strokes by sweeping one eagle and seven birdies in 11 holes from the first birdie he got at the fourth hole (par 5) to the 14th hole (par 4).

Henderson, who once jumped to an 11-under-par lead in interim performance, fell from the lead with his first bogey on the 16th hole (par 4).
