The 25-year-old from Bangkok began the third round on four under, two strokes adrift of co-leaders Simon Dyson and Ernie Els.

The Thai nailed a 10-foot birdie at the 10th to make it a three-way tie for the lead before jumping two shots in front with his eagle on the 11th when he chipped in with a pitching wedge from 118 yards.

Chapchai went on to par the 12th when play was halted, leaving him on five under for the day and nine under overall.

Dyson, Lam Chih Bing and Thomas Bjorn were tied for second on seven under at the time of the stoppage.

Dyson was six under at the start of play and picked up a shot with a birdie on the fourth while parring all of the other 11 holes he completed.

Lam was tied with Chapchai on four under at the start of the round and made birdies on the second and fourth before holing his third of the day with a four-footer on the ninth.

Bjorn started on three under and dropped a shot on the fourth before making birdies at five of his next nine holes to move to seven under after 12.

World number five Padraig Harrington held the clubhouse lead after shooting a 66 in the third round to improve to five under.

He was joined on that score by world number three Phil Mickelson (four under through 14), Ernie Els (one over through 11), Rory McIlroy (one under through 11) and Jeev Milkha Singh (four under through 14).
