Cameron Young held a one-stroke lead over defending champion Aaron Rai of England when the second round of the Wyndham Championship was suspended due to lightning on Friday in Greensboro, N.C.
The PGA Tour’s regular-season finale was halted at 4:32 p.m. local time with lightning in the area of Sedgefield Country Club. Two hours later, the tour said play would resume Saturday at 7:30 a.m.
Once the second round is completed, the third round will tee off in threesomes at Nos. 1 and 10 in order to fit in the next 18 holes.
Young and Rai were among those still on the course when play was called. Young had just birdied Nos. 14 and 15 to get to 7 under for the round and 14 under for the tournament. Rai had six birdies through 13 holes completed.
South Korea’s Sungjae Im shot 64 for the second straight day and shares the clubhouse lead with Mac Meissner at 12 under. Meissner fired a 7-under 63 to climb the leaderboard.
Mark Hubbard is alone in fifth at 11 under following a 66.
It is the final week for PGA Tour players to secure a spot in the top 70 of the FedEx Cup standings to qualify for the playoffs. Meissner, for instance, is a distant No. 152 in the standings and unlikely to crack the top 70 even with a win. Hubbard is 98th and would only reach No. 82 with a fifth-place finish, according to the tour.
Notables include Tony Finau at 5 under following a 65, Rickie Fowler at 3 under after a 68 and U.S. Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley likely to miss the cut after a 72 dropped him to even par. The projected cut line is 3 under par, but subject to change Saturday morning.
Joel Dahmen, the first-round leader thanks to a white-hot 61, was even par through 10 holes Friday to remain at 9 under.
