Any updates on when play will resume?

While waiting for weather, Andrew Landry information below, in case he stays hot the rest of this round, and into the next.

He'd be a candidate for that "Lightning in a Bottle" thread.  Ranked 600th or so in the world for a while now. The big jump up from 1500 to 450 was a win on web.com early in 2015, and he's been mostly holding on since then.

Ugh this really puts a damper on the tournament.  Gonna be a congested Friday and Saturday now.

Busy time of the sports year, NHL playoffs ended, NBA finals, Euro 2016, USO:

 

Because the networks are stale, people working there have been there forever, resting on their past, way back laurels.

He'll come back to the field, don't you worry. The golfing gods have it in hand. It's like cycling, the peloton usually reels the breakaway in. And it's usually a spectacular blow up hole. Don't mean to be down on Mr. Landry, but all this has happened before, and it will happen again.

[/Cynicism]

Yah, this is DeChambeau's to lose.  

But pretty good stats by Landry so far:

Hitting it longer than the field, more often in the fairway, then hitting more greens and sinking more putts.

 

Quite a contrast to Danny Lee, T3 at -2 after 9:

Missing more fairways, with shorter drives, not hitting the greens as often- but scrambling and sinking a lot of putts. 

Lots of ways to get to the top of the leaderboard part way through Day 1.
