Sun might just be PGA Tour’s biggest enemy! The opening round of the World Wide Technology Championship has come to an abrupt end. The play was suspended due to darkness at 5:41 pm local time (MT). It was a day of clear skies and perfect playing conditions. Yet, the sun simply set too soon for the remaining players to finish their first rounds at El Cardonal at Diamente, Mexico. The play will now resume on Friday at 7:15 am, with the second round schedule to begin as planned. The suspension caught several players still out on the course, while others had already wrapped up their respective rounds at the $6 M event. ADVERTISEMENT Before the match ended midway, fans were able to see some great performances on the course. Nick Dunlap and Sami Valimaki matched the tournament’s 18-hole scoring record with spectacular rounds of 61. They have now joined the likes of Roland Thatcher (2008), Matthew Wolff (2021), and Carson Young (2024) in the record books.
