Play in the first round of the 126th US Open at Shinnecock Hills is halted by thick fog, according to multiple outlets. On Thursday, officials suspend play as visibility drops, pausing the schedule during the opening session. One report describes the stoppage as lasting about two hours, with players and officials waiting for conditions to improve. After the fog lifts sufficiently, the tournament resumes and continues the first-round matches. The reports also indicate that, due to the length of the delay and the time of day, it is unlikely that all first-round play will be completed before sunset. Another outlet notes that high winds are looming, but the immediate impact highlighted across the sources is the fog disruption and the subsequent resumption of play following the approximately two-hour interruption. The coverage is consistent that the delay affects the timing of the first round rather than the tournament being called off entirely.
