  • Play was suspended at 3:25 p.m. local time on Saturday with the course deemed unplayable, and no player completed more than three holes of Round 2.
  • Sarah Schmelzel and Minami Katsu held the lead at 8 under, and Alison Lee reached 8 under with an early birdie before the stoppage.
  • The LPGA will determine Sunday morning whether Pinnacle Country Club is playable with a target restart of 7:10 a.m. CDT.
  • Officials will decide before any restart whether to attempt the full 54 holes or shorten the tournament to 36.
  • The tour is off next week, and a past edition in 2007 was cut to 18 holes and not considered official.
