Zurich Classic: Stuard, Lovemark and An in a sudden-death playoff

The end is in sight for the 2016 Zurich Classic of New Orleans. 

Golfers will tee off at 7 a.m. in attempt to finish the third - and final - round of the tournament after PGA Tour officials announced late Sunday the Zurich Classic would be reduced to 54 holes. 

This is the first time the Zurich Classic has been reduced to 54 holes. That year, World Golf Hall of Famer Seve Ballesteros won the event by two strokes. 

The lead group - featuring Brian Stuard, Jhonattan Vegas and Jamie Lovemark - were only five holes into the third round on Sunday morning when play was suspended at 10:18 a.m. 

Stuard and Vegas are sitting at 13-under with Bobby Wyatt - playing on a sponsor invitation this week - sitting back at 12-under through nine holes. The 23-year old Wyatt is playing in just his ninth career Tour event.
