Play was suspended due to darkness Thursday at 8:02 p.m. with 24 players still on the course. The remaining players will tee off at 7:40 a.m. Friday morning to complete the first round. The second round will start as scheduled at 7:10 a.m.

Groups We're Watching

Tee time	Players
7:43 a.m. ET No. 10		Matt Bettencourt, Will MacKenzie, Chris Dimarco The last time the TOUR split up for two tournaments, Bettencourt hoisted the trophy in Reno. DiMarco (140th) and MacKenzie (161st) need good showings to make the playoffs.
8:05 a.m. ET No. 1		Cliff Kresge, Jeev Milkha Singh, Graham DeLaet DeLaet has been solid his rookie season, making six of eight cuts since late May. Singh and Kresge are both in the top 200 of the FedExCup standings, but out of the postseason picture.
8:27 a.m. ET No. 1		Charles Howell III, Kirk Triplett, Jeff Quinney Howell is one of the highest-ranked players in the field. Quinney, who finished T4 at the RBC Canadian Open, would be the "last one out" if the playoffs began this week.
8:38 a.m. ET, No. 1		Vaughn Taylor, Brendon de Jonge, Alex Prugh Taylor was the runner-up at this event a year ago and has a top-20 finish each of the three years here while de Jonge is arguably playing better than anyone else in the field of late.
12 p.m. ET, No. 1		Tim Herron, Robert Garrigus, Jeff Gove Garrigus has two top 10s on the year, but is barely in the playoff picture at 116th. Gove and Herron would each need a third-place finish (or better) to move into the top 125.
1:06 p.m. ET, No. 1		Brad Faxon, Glen Day, Greg Owen A top-1o finish would do wonders for any of the three in this group as they hope to make a late push in a spot for the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup.
