Unsafe weather conditions haven't been favorable thus far at the Shriners Children's Open in Las Vegas.
After darkness suspended play on Thursday, the PGA Tour delayed the start of Friday's second round by four hours due to 40-50 mph wind gusts at TPC Summerlin.
Play ultimately began, however, without the fans.
"Out of an abundance of caution for spectator safety, gates to the Shriners Children's Open are closed to all spectators on Friday, October 18 until further notice," read a statement on behalf of the tournament organizers.
Taylor Pendrith of Canada fired a 10-under-par 61 to leap out to a three-stroke lead after the opening round.
