AUGUSTA, Ga. — After (almost) two rounds, the 87th Masters tournament had a little bit of everything: redemption stories, sentimental stories, villains, heroes, bad weather in the offing, and even a near natural disaster.
Oh, and Tiger, too.
Shortly after 4 p.m., three trees fell near the 17th hole, scattering fans and ending play for the day at 4:22 p.m., the second weather stoppage of the round. No one was injured. Play was to resume at 8 a.m. Saturday and continue all day despite rain in the forecast. Tiger Woods and 38 other players failed to complete Round 2. Tiger was on the 2-over cut line with seven holes to play, seeking to tie Fred Couples and Gary Player, each of whom made a record 23 consecutive cuts here.
