To some degree, the 41st U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship has turned into a race against fading daylight. Given Sunday’s storm and the loss of nearly half a day on Monday due to course cleanup, the national championship for golfers 25 and older is now playing catchup.
On Tuesday, weather-delayed Round 2 was completed at noontime CDT at Erin Hills and stroke-play co-host Blue Mound Golf & Country Club, with the cut for match play coming at 3-over-par 144. Two hours later, the first Round-of-64 match began at Erin Hills, while the 17-for-12 playoff for the final spots in the draw commenced on No. 10 at 1:30 p.m.
