Mon 06 Jun 2009Luna does not lose way in fog
LADIES IRISH OPEN: THE SCOTS would refer to it as a sea haar but the Ladies European Tour (LET) might chose a less lyrical reference in describing the fog that enveloped Portmarnock Links, causing a three and a half hour delay to the final round of the AIB Ladies Irish Open.
The disruption came in two tranches, a half-hour hiatus in the morning followed by an enforced three-hour cessation before play restarted at 4.15pm. Visibility was reduced to less than 100 yards and it was only apparently when the tide changed and a breeze blew over the course that the fog dissipated.
