Garcia loses lead

Two bogeys cost Ryder Cup star Sergio Garcia his share of the lead before heavy fog stopped play at the Taiheiyo Masters in Japan.

The Spaniard was in a three-way tie at the start of play but dropped a shot at the long third and the par-four ninth to turn in 38.

He had reached the 14th at seven under when play was abandoned for the day.

It left Japan's Makoto Inoue - four under for the day - in the outright lead on 11 under with two holes to play.

Garcia's Ryder Cup team-mate Darren Clarke's chances of a third successive win disappeared after he shot a 73 to close one over par.
