Torrential Rain Hits EuroPro Event

Published in:

Heavy rain forced a three-hour delay on the opening day of the latest Ivobank PGA EuroPro Tour event at Whittlebury Park.

Play had already been suspended at 10.30am for 30 minutes earlier in the day when the heavens opened again at 3pm and prevented play until 6.15pm after the green staff had worked tirelessly to make the soaked course playable.

Robert Perrett (Clevedon GC), Simon Thornton (Royal County Down) and Robert Steele (Kenilworth GC) were clubhouse leaders after shooting three under par 68s.

The first round will be completed tomorrow (Thursday). For score updates and live scoring throughout the tournament click here.
