Australian Wade Ormsby set the clubhouse target but his position at the top of the leaderboard was under serious threat when play was suspended for the day due to storms during round one of the 2021 BMW International Open in Germany.
Ormsby had carded a bogey free 65 to get to seven under at Golfclub München Eichenried but Spain’s Sebastian Garcia Rodriguez, England’s Sam Horsfield and Japan’s Masahiro Kawamura had all joined him when the hooter sounded due to thunder and lightning.
All three also had putts to take the outright lead, with Horsfield left with an eagle putt on the last, Kawamura facing a birdie effort on the ninth – his final hole – and Garcia Rodriguez left with a birdie attempt on the 12th.
