By Matt Smith ABU DHABI (Reuters) – Jordan Spieth featured in a six-ball on his last green in fading light at the Abu Dhabi Championship on Saturday as he became one of the few golfers to finish a fog-interrupted third round. Spieth toiled his way to a one-over 73 in the morning but improved in the afternoon, making four birdies in an error-free third round to shoot a 68 for 209, seven under. World number three Rory McIlroy, American Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter of England, Dutchman Joost Luiten and Branden Grace of South Africa are setting the pace on 10 under but all five must return early in the morning to finish their rounds.
