The storm forced a stoppage of play; Spain’s Jon Rahm has 9 holes to go, three shots behind the leader Koepka

He Master of Augustus He was forced to stop the second day this Friday due to the fall of three trees, without regretting the injuries, with the arrival of a terrible storm, with the Spanish Jon Rahm in the fight for the return of the leadership held by the American Koepka streams with his quiet -12.

Part known days before pointed out that meteorology will play its role in the first main season and that’s how it will be. Not on Thursday, where Rahm shined at -7 despite starting the tournament with a double bogeynor for golfers who played Friday morning at Augusta National, like Koepka.

However, in the middle of the afternoon shift, the first out was called, and Rahm pulled the ball out of the bunker on the 7th hole, with a par on the day at the time. The first break lasted barely half an hour, and Bask did a complicated job tan that he went and then signed little birds on 8 and 9 to get to -9.

As the rain picked up and the horns were ready again, the noise was heard earlier on the 17th hole: three trees uprooted by the wind due to the panic of those present. The organization confirmed a few hours later that there were no injuries in the incident, except that the day was postponed to Saturday, the worst day according to that report, with a drastic drop in temperature and a lot of rain.

Monday’s outcome, as it happened the last time 40 years ago in the second green jersey of Spain’s Severiano Ballesteros, seems to be all victory as everything is decided. Koepka, the most toned player of LIV Golf after the recent victory in Orlando, can wait calmly, like amateurs Sam Bennett (-8), Collin Morikawa (-6), Jason Day (-5) or Phil Mickelson (-4). ).

For many others, the odyssey will be greater, trying to finish the second day and start the third if the rain doesn’t make it impossible. Rahm, who strives to emulate Sev and achieved his second major success, he sees the challenge rising, but he is able, and not so another favorite like Rory McIlroy, the Northern Irishman was shut out on the cut-off day (+5) in his who-knows-what attempt to complete the Grand Slam .

While, Sergio Garcíachampion in 2017, he will have to improve a lot to avoid elimination, with a +4 on the 14th hole, and also Spain’s José María Olazábal signed another 77 as in his debut, dissatisfied with his game, to say goodbye to main which he won twice. American Tiger Woods is at +2, right where the cut is marked, with seven holes to play.
