PLAY SUSPENDED AT ST RULE

Team member Emily Ogilvy posted a very credible 80 yesterday (CSS 78) for the first round of the St Rule. This placed Emily 22nd in a very large field.

However Emily called earlier to let me know that play has been suspended due to extremely high winds which is making putting almost impossible.

I will keep you posted on the outcome of this suspension and if and when play resumes.
