Daly leads as Qatar event is reduced to 54 holes

THE Qatar Masters has been reduced to 54 holes after the second round was severely disrupted on Friday.

High winds in Doha meant that only three hours play was possible and the event will now be decided over just three rounds, although it should finish on Sunday as planned.

First-round leader John Daly was unable to start his second round, but Australian Jason Day and Spaniard Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano were able to make up some ground, joining KJ Choi one shot behind the Wild Thing on four under par.
