AUGUSTA, Ga. – A marathon Sunday is on deck at the Masters after third-round play was suspended for the day because of inclement weather.

The horn sounded at 3:15 p.m. ET Saturday, with the final group on the seventh green.

With a steady rain causing pooling on the greens and in the fairways – and more precipitation on the way – officials decided to call play for the remainder of the day.

Brooks Koepka sat at 13 under par, four shots ahead of Jon Rahm, with 12 holes to finish in their third rounds. Amateur Sam Bennett was another three shots back.

Heading into Saturday there was concern whether they’d be able to play at all because of a forecast that called for upwards of 2 inches of rain. But half the field completed their second round to make the 36-hole cut, then started the third round off split tees and in threesomes. The first group completed 13 holes. 

At the bottom of the leaderboard was Tiger Woods, who was on his way to the worst score of his Masters career, going 6 over par for his first seven holes – including consecutive double bogeys on the second nine – after making the cut on the number. When the horn sounded, he was in last place by three shots.

The good news for tournament officials: Sunday’s forecast looks clear. Cloudy skies in the morning are expected to give way to afternoon sun, with high temperatures in the low-60s and winds at about 15 mph.
