ATLANTA - Isolated thunderstorms brought lightning strikes to the area surrounding East Lake. The air-horn sounded, just like the good old days when Vic Hadfield of the New York Rangers would score a goal at Madison Square Garden. Play was suspended and will start at 9:45am to complete the third round.
Slightly more than half of the field must return to complete the third round.
