ST ANDREWS, Scotland (Reuters) - Floods, fireworks and farewells were the order of the day as a rain-interrupted second round ended with Dustin Johnson occupying first place on the leaderboard in the 144th British Open on Friday.
The big-hitting American was 10-under-par for the championship through 13 holes, one stroke clear of England's Danny Willett (69), when darkness ended play just before 10pm with several groups still out on the course.
After early morning thunderstorms caused play to be suspended for more than three hours, it was always inevitable the round would have to be carried over into Saturday.
