Dark clouds rolled in hours before the rain started at the Zurich Classic on Friday. However, even the brisk winds before the storm did not seem to hamper those who teed off early. Lightning forced play to be halted at 12:57 p.m., and heavy rain continued for hours. Play was officially called for the day at 5:21 p.m. According to the National Weather Service, 1 1/2 to 2 inches of rain had fallen by 3 p.m. By the time play was halted, 47 players had finished their rounds, and three — Lee Janzen, Alex Cejka and Brian Davis — were atop the leaderboard at 7 under after two rounds. Janzen shot a bogey-free 66, to snap a string of four straight missed cuts coming into the tournament. |
