Seamus Power e Austin Smotherman vão decidir o Butterfield Bermuda Championship em um playoff nesta segunda-feira, depois de a rodada final ser cancelada por causa do tempo ruim.
A PGA Tour confirmou a decisão na noite de domingo. Power e Smotherman estavam empatados em 16 abaixo do par depois de 54 buracos, dois tacos à frente de um grupo que incluía Taylor Moore, Corey Conners e Ben Silverman.
Os árbitros avaliaram a possibilidade de jogar a última rodada na segunda-feira, mas a previsão de mais chuva e vento forte acabou com a esperança. O playoff está marcado para as 12h GMT — 9h no horário local — se o tempo permitir.
Não desde o AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am de 2024, afetado pelo tempo e vencido por Wyndham Clark, um torneio da PGA Tour terminava depois de 54 buracos.
“Devido à previsão desfavorável para segunda-feira no Butterfield Bermuda Championship e à incerteza em torno da conclusão de toda a rodada final na segunda, os resultados do torneio serão considerados finais em 54 buracos, de acordo com os regulamentos da PGA Tour”, disse o Tour em nota, acrescentando que o playoff decidiria o campeão.
Power busca o terceiro título da PGA Tour; o primeiro veio num playoff, contra JT Poston, no ISCO Championship de 2021. Smotherman nunca disputou um playoff no circuito e busca a segunda vitória, depois de ganhar o Bank of Utah Championship na aparição anterior.
Smotherman abriu com 65 e 66 e depois subiu sete posições no sábado com um 66 de cinco abaixo do par que teve três birdies nos cinco primeiros buracos e um eagle no sétimo. Power fez 64 na segunda rodada e depois um 67 de quatro abaixo enquanto os outros caíam, dividindo a liderança.
A manhã de segunda-feira tem 60 por cento de chance de chuva, e os ventos devem chegar a 15 ou 20 mph.
