MESA, AZ – Jorgen Lie Viken was only able to complete 12 holes before play was suspended due to lightning at the NAIA Men’s Golf Championship at the Las Sendas Golf Club.
Viken got off to a good start after starting on hole 10. The senior birdied No. 12 before bogies on Nos. 13, 15 and 1 pushed him back to a 2-over score with six holes remaining in his first round. Viken is currently six-strokes behind a three-way tie for the lead.
“(Viken) was weathering the wind well as it was blowing 15 (MPH) with gusts to 25,” Warrior coach Zach Anderson said. “He left some shots out there, but that’s just going to happen at this course.”
The first round will resume at 6 a.m. PST with the second round to follow.
