US duo must wait for play-off
A play-off between Vaughn Taylor and Matt Kuchar was pushed to Monday after darkness forced play to be suspended in Verona.
Vaughn Taylor and Matt Kuchar will resume their play-off at the Turning Stone Resort Championship on Monday morning after darkness forced play to be suspended.
The American duo were given the option of waiting it out overnight after reaching a third hole level and with dusk descending, decided to continue on Monday.
Taylor and Kuchar will meet on the 13th tee at 8.30am Eastern Time (US).
They were deadlocked after Taylor, the half-way leader, produced an excellent 66 to get himself back amongst it while Kuchar, who resumed in joint first with Scott Piercy on Sunday morning, fired his worst round so far with 69 to find himself level with Taylor.
Playing the par-five 18th in the first play-off hole both managed nerveless birdies before moving to the 12th and parring with fives.
The winner will collect a USD1,080,000 cheque.
