Golf: Fog disrupts Ballantine's

Australian golfer Marcus Fraser was the clubhouse leader after fog wrecked the opening round of the US$2.9 million ($4.06 million) Ballantine's Championship yesterday, leaving more than a third of the field yet to hit a shot.

Six hours and 10 minutes of play were lost in total when fog descended on the European and Asian Tour co-sanctioned event on Jeju Island, shrouding the Pinx Golf Club and severely restricting visibility.
