Gusts topped 40 mph (65 kph) in the morning, and none of the 72 players who made the cut was able to tee off. Officials decided a few hours later to cancel play. The forecast for Monday was not any better, which ordinarily would lead to the event being reduced to 54 holes. Smotherman and Power were tied for the lead, however. And there was a charter flight leaving Bermuda on Monday morning for Vallarta, Mexico, the next stop on the PGA Tour schedule. Power and Smotherman are both in the field next week. One possibility was a playoff early Monday to decide a winner, provided the weather allowed. Officials were expected to decide by the end of Sunday. ___ See AP's full golf coverage here
