Three players are tied for the lead of the Canadian Open following third-round play Monday in Oakville, Ont.

Anthony Kim and Retief Goosen joined Sunday's leader, Jason Dufner, with a 15-under score on Monday morning.

Heavy rain has pummelled the Glen Abbey course in Oakville, Ont., forcing several interruptions since play began Thursday.

With the fourth and final round underway, the tournament will have its first Monday finish since 1988.

Michael Letzig , Bob Estes and Nathan Green sit one shot back of the leaders.

Mike Weir of Bright's Grove, Ont., finished his third round with a 69 and is six shots behind.

Weir sent the crowd into a frenzy on Sunday with a hole-in-one on the fourth to pull himself back into contention. The ace was the seventh of the tournament — easily breaking the previous record of four since the tour began keeping track in 1971.
