Australian PGA Championship Shortened to 54 Holes
The BMW Australian PGA Championship has been officially reduced to a 54-hole tournament after heavy rainfall rendered the Royal Queensland Golf Club course unplayable. Over the past week, the area received nearly 250mm of rain, leading to the abandonment of Friday's second round, which was originally scheduled to start at 11:30am local time. Tournament organizers plan to resume with the second round at 6am on Saturday, aiming to complete the event by Sunday. Australian golfer Elvis Smylie currently leads with a score of 6-under 65, followed closely by major winners Cameron Smith and Jason Day at 4-under. The weather forecast indicates improved conditions for the weekend, allowing for the tournament's conclusion. This marks the first time in the 95-year history of the Australian PGA Championship that it will be played over only 54 holes.
