Play abandoned at Scottish Open

The golfing Gods looked down on Colin Montgomerie in Inverness today and decided to make it as hard as possible for him to qualify for next week’s Open.

Woken up at 4.30am by an almighty thunderclap, Montgomerie finally got back on the rain-soaked course at 7.30pm – but like everyone else did not hit a shot before play was abandoned for the day because of the conditions.
