Rain extends Kentucky’s PGA Tour event into Monday; ex-Cats finish strong

After the second round was suspended on Friday with most golfers having not completed 18 holes, some good fortune allowed the second and third rounds of the Barbasol Championship to be completed on Saturday. There was plenty more rain in Central Kentucky that day, but it all seemed to skirt around the Champions Course at Keene Trace Golf Club.

But the bad-weather bug returned on Sunday as a strong storm left standing water throughout the course, halting play before the early pairings could complete their final rounds. Some four hours later play restarted, but after about 10 minutes it was suspended again when lightning was spotted in the area.
