France's Alexander Levy will take a four-shot lead into the third and final round of the Porsche European Open after the event was reduced to 54 holes.
After fog delayed play for the third day running on Saturday, Levy completed the final hole of his second round with a par on the ninth, adding a flawless 63 to his opening 62 to finish 17 under par.
At that stage the 26-year-old was five clear of England's Ross Fisher, who had carded a second consecutive 65, but Sweden's Michael Jonzon then made the most of his last-minute entry into the tournament with a superb 63.
Paul Dunne was the only Irishman to make the cut and is eight shots behind Levy after a three-under second round of 68 left him on -8 overall.
Michael Hoey just missed the cut on three under after a 72 as three bogeys in his opening 10 holes proved expensive, and Padraig Harrington also missed out by a shot despite a second round that featured four birdies and just a single bogey.
Ruaidhri McGee's 71 saw him finish on two under.
Jonzon, 44, who only got into the field when Victor Dubuisson withdrew on Wednesday, birdied seven of his last 11 holes to finish 13 under, with Fisher 12 under and Ryder Cup star Martin Kaymer and Austria's Bernd Wiesberger a shot further back.
Wiesberger had looked the biggest threat to Levy when he followed a front nine of 33 with an eagle on the 10th and birdie on the 11th, but found water with his approach to the 12th and came up 30 yards short of the green on the 14th to bogey both holes.
With more fog possible on Sunday, tournament officials had no option but to reduce the event to 54 holes.
"The weather hasn't been on our side but the guys here at Bad Griesbach have made a fantastic job of making sure after all the rainfall we had last week that we could actually start on Thursday," tournament director Mikael Eriksson told Sky Sports 4.
"We're planning to finish the second round tonight around 6:30pm and then do a normal cut and play the final round tomorrow morning from two tees in three balls in a U draw and the tournament will be held over 54 holes.
"There is a possibility of fog, that's why we don't want to start before 9am and that's why also we're starting from two tees in three balls, to maximise our time tomorrow."
Jonzon, who won his first European Tour title in 1997 and his last in 2009, said: "I always said I function well under these circumstances.
"I struggle more just trying to make cuts because I can put a lot of pressure on myself. I know what I can do and sometimes I try too much.
"I've been there before. I'm just going to go out tomorrow and try to shoot as good as I can, whatever happens after that is not in my control. I'm going to be trying as hard as I can and be proud of my effort tomorrow."
