Versailles (France) (AFP) - Thai veteran Thongchai Jaidee made a stunning start to the third round of the French Open at Le Golf National on Saturday.
Having just made the halfway cut by two strokes after rounds of 70 and 74, Thongchai needed a big early effort to get back in contention and that he did by birdieing the first six holes.
That shot him up the leaderboard to four under for the tournament through 14 holes, matching the overnight leading mark.
