SAN ANTONIO \u2014 A long and soggy Sunday awaits the field at the Valero Texas Open.<\/p>\n

The PGA TOUR postponed the third round at 5:52 p.m. local time Saturday<\/a>, five hours after play was suspended. All 70 players who made the cut will return Sunday to finish, starting at 7:45 a.m. local time, without repairing after 54 holes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re done,\u201d PGA TOUR rules official Ken Tackett said. \u201cThe golf course just can\u2019t take any more.\u201d<\/p>\n

No players finished on Saturday. The final group of Robert MacIntyre (first\/15 under), Ludvig \u00c5berg (second\/13 under) and Kevin Roy (T10\/9 under) completed six holes, while players such as Matt Wallace and Marco Penge finished 14. Wallace, 11 under overall, was 7 under on his day when play was called, with two eagles on his card. Penge, who made seven birdies on his opening nine, was at 10 under.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when the horn blew, suspending play on TOUR for the fifth time this season.<\/p>\n

Light rain soon fell. Then it became sheets. Sheets became more sheets, in waves and waves and waves.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, the system stalled out on us,\u201d Tackett said.<\/p>\n

Typically a springtime tournament, the 104-year-old Valero Texas Open often gets round-suspending showers \u2013 and, once many years ago, snow.<\/p>\n

Bad weather in San Antonio even played a role in TOUR history. During a delay in 1928, Tommy Armour and other players filled the time by formalizing bylaws for the Professional Touring Golfers\u2019 Association, a forerunner of the PGA TOUR.<\/p>\n
