Austrian Open abandoned for day due to rain

Reuters - Friday, June 6

VIENNA - Organisers abandoned the first day's play at the Austrian Open on Thursday before a ball had been struck because of a waterlogged course.

The Fontana Golf Course on the outskirts of Vienna had been hit by heavy overnight rain which continued in the morning when the event was abandoned for the day.

The first round has been rescheduled for Friday with organisers saying they still hope to complete a 72-hole tournament.
