Any chance that they will go off here because of the amount of water around ?
If it starts accumulating around the hole itself, definitely.
Can’t see there not being a delay.
Correct.
Surely they're not getting going again any time soon?
Yup suspended for the day
What happens to the spectators who've got tickets for today? Are they invited back tomorrow/Monday when I presume it'll over run to? Or is it like the F1 where it's basically tough s**t
It's tough shit they can't fit them in with those who also have tickets for tomorrow.
From the below article…
Augusta National’s policy dictates no rain checks or refunds on badges.

Weather is pretty good tomorrow so I will be shocked if this doesn’t finish tomorrow
Double teeing will help to get it accomplished. Gonna be a loooong day for many of the pros.
The delay is massive for Koepka. He had gone way right with the driver twice, and pretty much would have to hit it on every par 4. Tomorrow he’ll be able to hit 3 wood if he’s not feeling it and Koepka is about as consistent a 3 wood player as you can get.
Tiger needs to suck it up and play in a cart. He still has so much to offer to the game of golf but the lack of competition golf is killing him, especially his putting.
The weather 2 hours north of Augusta is awful.
It’s still pouring here and will be till midnight tonight.
It really pisses me off that Koepka is gonna play this entire tournament without having to play a complete round in the poor weather.
Why? Literally half the field got the same draw as Koepka? It’s not like he got to go out there on his own in favourable conditions? 50ish guys got his draw. None of them got to -12.
Rory got a quite similar draw and missed the cut 17 shots back.
Most Open Championships have a draw that favours some players. It’s weather in an outdoor sport. It happens.

Of course, it's the rub of the green. Can be helpful or hurtful. I even made a comment on Friday that Brooks was going to benefit greatly due to late / early.
I'm rooting against Brooks simply because he plays on LIV. Granted, he already had his exemption to the Masters & will have it for the next 5 years or so before he will have to accrue WOGR points to qualify (if he doesn't win another major). I just don't want a LIV player who plays on a hit & giggle tour to be able to waltz into the majors with a reserved spot.
Going to be more interesting today seeing the players hitting longer irons into the greens.
Some players were saying each non- par 3 hole was playing 75 yards longer than the listed yardage during the worst of it.

Woods withdraws
Imagine morikawa could be 25 yards further off the tee. He might never lose another tournament
brooks got a tiny bit of my respect back when he said if he was at the top of his game, he may have not joined Liv. He’s shown up playing in his own Nike gear unlike some of the other Liv captains, too.
Expected tbh, too many factors against him and his health here. Huge inclined and slopes, now the ground wet and bad footing.
Needed to. He was struggling yesterday. The course is just brutal from an elevation change perspective.
So happy he was able to maintain his made cut streak.
We could see a two stroke swing by Koepka & Rahm immediately out of the gate on the 7th. green. Koepka for pat is 12 feet out; Rahm has an even shorter birdie putt.
Jealous of the patrons today who are able to see basically an extra nine today!

and that’s exactly what happens. Amazing start for the day.
Yeah I noticed that too with the gear thing.
What I'll say about the thing about being at the top of his game its up to him to get it back and he has shown he can, to cop out and say that's the reason was cowardly imo
Brooks will need to do well to keep Rahm away today. He’s looking menacing
Yep, Bennett's slow play isn't going to help Koepka what so ever either.
Rahm really doesn't look built like a pro athlete, especially when you put him next to Koepka
That up and down on 9 is so good from Rahm. Making putts outside of 10 feet, Koepka missed his only long one so far this round.
This could easily be a double bogey if he declares unplayable like Colin. Colin’s “3rd” was an exceptional strike
Totally respect the back story of the tattoo, especially using his father's handwriting.
That's a great recovery and putt from Koepka, Rahm will be kicking himself he didn't gain atleast 1 shot there.
Because he’s a douche bag
