Taylor Pendrith avoids biggest wind and stays in front in Las Vegas with a long day ahead

Taylor Pendrith was spared wind so strong it caused a four-hour delay and battered the field Friday in the Shriners Hospital Open. The Canadian only had to play six holes and stayed in the lead before the second round was halted by darkness. Pendrith, who had a 10-under 61 on Thursday in a relatively calm morning to start the tournament, now faces a long Saturday — 12 holes to complete the second round and however many holes in the third round as the autumn light allows.
