Justin Thomas holds a one-shot lead over Rory McIlroy and Brooks Koepka with play suspended for the remainder of Saturday due to inclement weather at the Tour Championship.

Thomas is 12-under for the event and even par through five holes in Round 3 while McIlroy and Koepka are 1-over and 2-over on the day, respectively.

Dangerous weather halted play at 4:17 p.m. ET. Players and caddies were removed from the course. Unfortunately, six fans were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries from two lightning strikes on the grounds at East Lake Golf Club.

Here's how the leaderboard stands midway through Round 3:

4 Xander Schauffele -10 5 +1
T5 Chez Reavie -9 7 -3
T5 Paul Casey -9 6 E

Round 3 will resume on Sunday at 8:00 a.m. ET followed by the final round.
