The front responsible for making this a U.S. Open memorable for all the wrong reasons, continues to spin wave after wave of rain over Bethpage Black.
It’s going to be at least noon before they play golf.
And when a trophy is awarded, they need to bring every member of the grounds crew out so they can all pose with the winner. This championship will not be over until Monday.
It’s now a lock.
According to Mike Davis of the USGA, there is another tenth of an inch of rain coming before 10 a.m. The gates will open at 11 a.m. Golfers will head out and be in place around noon, play will continue as long as possible.
If they complete the third round, it will take about an hour to re-pair the field and reset the pins. They do plan to start the final round and play into the darkness. Don’t forget, it’s the longest day of the year. Whatever is left, will be completed tomorrow.
Happy Father’s Day.
