03/12/2010 - Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A new day brought only more weather problems for the PGA Tour's Puerto Rico Open, which still wasn't halfway through the first round when play was suspended Friday because of darkness.
Rain continued to pose a problem at the Trump International course, which has seen more than a foot of the wet stuff since last weekend.
Skip Kendall reached five-under par through his first nine holes to take a one-shot lead over two players, but only half of the field had even teed off following two stop-and-start days.
On Thursday, only 18 players hit shots before play was suspended for the day because of rain. The first round resumed for 21 minutes Friday morning before being stopped again.
After a nine-hour delay, golfers were sent back on the course at 4:35 p.m. local time and got in only two hours of play before the round was suspended yet again because of darkness.
Norway's Henrik Bjornstad discovered his new tee time was 5:34 p.m. and said on his Twitter page: "Waited all day to play 3 holes? What a joke." He actually finished four holes and went one-over par on them.
The plan is to resume the first round Saturday morning at 7:10 a.m. local time -- 6:10 a.m. (et) -- although the Weather Channel is forecasting even more rain for the area.
The PGA Tour said the already sodden course received six-tenths of an inch of rain Friday. That came after it got 6.6 inches on Thursday and more than five inches over the previous six days.
"A complete mess," Bjornstad tweeted.
Kendall birdied three of the eight holes he completed Friday in between stoppages. He had eagled his first hole, the par-four 10th, before play was halted on Thursday.
Richard S. Johnson, who was through eight holes, and Kevin Streelman, who has played seven, were tied for second place at four-under par. Omar Uresti reached the back nine at three-under.
Ten players were tied at two-under par, while John Daly was among a large group knotted at one-under. Only 66 players in a full field had finished at least one hole.
"Just got in from a wet round -- watching some television and goin to bed," Daly, who had an eagle and a bogey, said on his Twitter page. "[My tee time is] at 7:10am."
Hopefully, his finger were crossed.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
