The delay began at 1:02 p.m. ET, and tournament organizers announced that play would resume at 2:55 p.m.
Leona Maguire of Ireland was in the lead through three rounds at 7 under par but was 1 over through her first seven holes Sunday to drop into a tie for second place. There was a two-way tie for the lead at 7 under between Xiyu Lin of China and Jenny Shin of South Korea when the delay began.
Lin was at 5 under through 10 holes Sunday, while Carlota Ciganda of Spain was at 7 under through 14 holes to reach 6 under for the tournament and move into a four-way tie for second with Maguire, Ayaka Furue of Japan and Stephanie Meadow of Northern Ireland.
