St Andrews (United Kingdom) (AFP) - Dustin Johnson led the British Open at the halfway stage at St Andrews on Saturday on a day that saw one of the worst wind delays in the tournament's history.

The 10 hour 28 minutes stoppage eventually forced organisers to announce that the final round would be held over until Monday for just the second time since it was first held in 1860.

Johnson was one of 39 players who played half an hour from 7:00 a.
