Heavy rain delays play in Milan for the Italian Open

Many of the regulars on the European Tour are enjoying a week of great food and wine down in Milan, along with 19 Italians playing their national championship at the Italian Open. There are seven members of the Ryder Cup team boosting the star power and supporting the announcement that the cup will contested there in 2022.

The weather so far hasn't been good however as the field has been chased off the course twice this morning with heavy rain and lightning in the area and play has now resumed at 1.30pm local time.

Play was almost totally washed out as the bad weather meant that just over an hour's play was possible at Golf Club Milano. The upshot is there is a five hour delay to the morning games yet to tee off and a five-hour delay to the afternoon tee times.

Miguel Angel Jimenez is amongst some notables in the lead at -3 through 9 holes.
