Poulter predicting fun times ahead

The halfway cut fell at eight over par, but Ian Poulter was still predicting a “fun weekend” as the weather-delayed US Open looked to get back on track at Merion today.

Poulter was just one shot off the lead and facing a birdie putt on the 15th green when play was suspended due to darkness shortly before 8:30pm yesterday evening, a knock-on effect of the four and a quarter hours’ play lost to bad weather on Thursday.
