COLUMBUS, Ohio – Thunderstorms that were forecast to disrupt play at the U.S. Open sectional qualifier in Columbus arrived later than expected, with officials evacuating the course at 4:45 p.m. (ET) at Brookside Golf & Country Club.
Play continued at the Lakes Golf & Country Club, the second of the two courses used for the 36-hole qualifier.
Bryson DeChambeau, the NCAA individual champion, was leading at 11 under on Brookside followed by Bo Van Pelt and Camilo Villegas a shot back.
The weather warning also opened the door for even more players to withdraw from the event.
