Today’s Missouri Open in Lee’s Summit is scheduled for an 8:30 a.m. start. There is rain in the area, with radar indicating heavy rain between 6:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. We will push back the registration opening to 7:45 a.m. We do expect the rain to taper off and according to the forecast taper off around 8:30. Using your best judgment, we ask that players make their way to the venue when it is safe to drive. Please do not try to drive through severe weather.

Once we work around the initial batch of rain, we should be able to get in our full Missouri Open schedule today.
