The first round of the Champions Tour's ACE Group Classic has been
suspended due to high winds.
Due to strong winds Friday, only nine of 81 players in the
field completed the round. Ronnie Black shot a 3-under 69 for the
clubhouse lead, while Fred Couples and Tommy Armour were also at 3
under after 10 and 11 holes, respectively.
Play was suspended at 12:39 p.m. when a number of holes were
deemed unplayable. Golfers were allowed to finish the hole they
were on, then called off the course at 1 p.m. Play was called for
the day forty-five minutes later.
The first round will resume at 8 a.m. Saturday. Players will
then be re-paired for the second round, which is scheduled to tee
off at 12:30 p.m.
