Phillip Price holds a one-shot lead at the Trophee Hassan II after the second round was suspended on Friday with all three Australians yet to complete their rounds.
Price, though, carded a flawless six-under 66 to move into 10-under at Golf du Palais Royal in Agadir, Morocco, where the start of play was delayed by almost six hours because of strong winds.
Price is a shot clear of Spaniard Jose Manuel Lara, who shot a seven-under 65, while Swede Joel Sjoholm shares third with South African James Kingston.
Kingston was through 17 holes when play was suspended, one of several players unable to finish their second rounds because of the earlier delay.
Price, famous for beating Phil Mickelson in the singles to help Europe win the 2002 Ryder Cup, said he was thrilled with his round after the lengthy delay.
"It was rather unpleasant this morning so I'm very pleased," Price said.
"I had a 5:25 alarm call this morning and then a five-and-a-half-hour delay. Thankfully I managed to have a little 20-minute power nap in the locker room during the delay and that really helped. "
"I was very surprised by how calm it became throughout the day after this morning. It was really windy when we started to go out there and shoot six-under is really pleasing. "
"But it was frustrating to go to the tee twice and not be allowed to tee off because it is difficult to get yourself in the right mood and then be called off."
Starting on the back nine, Price went bogey-free with a hat-trick of birdies from the 15th helping kick-start his round.
Overnight leader Damien McGrane is tied for fifth at seven-under after managing par through five holes.
Brett Rumford, meanwhile, remains the best of the Australians at one-under for the tournament. Rumford is nine strokes behind the leader but didn't even get the chance to start his second round on Friday.
Rumford is alongside Andrew Dodt, who is on par through four holes in his second round, and two strokes ahead of Marcus Fraser, who is one over through three.
