Ben Curtis Will Have to Wait

Ben Curtis will have to wait yet another day to capture his first win since the 2003 British Open as the east coast gets drenched Monday. Ben Curtis, whose last tour win came at a Major, the British Open, leads the Booze Allen Classic in Potomac, Maryland by 7 strokes.

After being postponed til Monday Curtis was nearing the end of his round where he stood in the lead on the 17th green when play was stopped. The Tuesday slated finish will be the first Tuesday finish in 26 years for the PGA tour and may actually see a Wednesday finish as rain doesn’t look like it will let up anytime soon.

The Leaderboard for the Booze Allen has Curtis at 22 under, followed by Billy Andrade, Padraig Harrington, Nick O’Hern, and Steve Stricker all at 15 under. Short of an absolutely horrendous last hole it appears Curtis will get his win that he has been trying so hard for lately.
