Four Indian golfers spend second day waiting for weather to clear at Japan event.

Indian quartet of Krishnav Chopraa, Vedant Sirohi, Kartik Singh and Rakshit Dahiya spent the whole of second day waiting for the weather to clear as Japan’s Rintaro Nakano took the lead before play suspended at the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship on Friday.

Chopraa (68), Sirohi (69), Singh (71) and Dahiya (75), all of whom played in the morning slot on the first day, were waiting till they were told that would get to tee off only on Saturday.

Nakano took a late one-stroke lead at seven-under over China’s Wenyi Ding as the second round was suspended due to darkness on Friday evening at Taiheiyo Club Gotemba.

The second round was delayed by six and a half hours due to fog and heavy rain.

“There is little we can do,” said Singh, who along with Chopraa, Sirohi and Dahiya came to the course and did practice on the putting green.

“There is little one can do about this. Weather stoppages and delays are part of golf,” said Chopraa with a laugh.

“We are all used to it.” They will all go out early in the morning on Saturday and hope to finish their second and some part of third round.
