US Masters canceled due to weather chaos

Date:

Persistent rain has led to the abandonment of the third round of the US Golf Masters on Saturday.

The major tournament in Augusta continues on Sunday from 2:30 p.m. German time. By the third round, the leaders had just played six holes.

In Augusta’s constant rain, Tiger Woods had previously set a record: the 47-year-old Californian made the cut for the 23rd time in a row.

Only South Africa’s golf legend Gary Player and Fred Couples from the USA had previously achieved this record.

A day after the weather drama that saw three downed trees at Augusta National Golf Club, Woods qualified for the weekend’s crucial two rounds in torrential rain.

The five-time Masters winner finished the second round, which had been canceled the day before due to storms, with 73 strokes on Saturday and was tied for 49th place with a total of 147 strokes at halftime in the first major tournament of the year.
