Manav Shah of Bakersfield is playing in the U.S. Open golf championship tournament at Shinnecock Hills in Southampton N.Y. Scheduled to start at 11:42 a.m. Pacific time on Thursday, morning fog forced a two-hour delay in the opening round. As a result, Shah’s first-round tee time won’t be until at least 1:42 p.m. Pacific (4:42 p.m. Eastern). Shah is playing in the final group of the day and will start on the No. 10 tee.
Shah’s second-round tee time Friday is scheduled for 8:47 a.m. Pacific, but that, too, could be altered if players are not able to finish their opening round Thursday. Shah and others would come back early in the morning Friday to complete the first round before second-round play could begin.
