Havret and McDowell lead Italian Open

MILAN, Italy -- Gregory Havret and Graeme McDowell shared
the lead at 18 under at the Italian Open on Sunday when final-round
play was suspended because of darkness.

Havret had two holes to complete Monday morning, while McDowell
had four.

Rain has interrupted play the entire weekend, and the tournament
was reduced to 54 holes. Several players only finished their second
rounds Sunday morning, and the Monday finish will be the first on
the European Tour since Paul Lawrie won the Dunhill Links at St.
Andrews in 2001.

France's Thomas Levet was one stroke behind the leaders with
four holes to play.

Second-round leader Angel Cabrera of Argentina was three strokes
behind with four to play and two-time defending champion Ian
Poulter of England was a distant five shots back with just two
holes remaining.

Havret won the 2001 Italian Open in Sardinia.
