A rather ominous thunderstorm halted play Thursday afternoon at the WGC-Cadillac Championship taking place at Trump National Doral outside of Miami. At the time, Jason Dufner was atop the leaderboard at 5-under through 10 holes, and Tiger Woods was +1 through six.
Thankfully for those of us sitting at home/work, the delay gave players and media members plenty of time to display their wit on social media. Some of the best posts:
Small storm here in Doral right now, should pass in the next 6 hours or so! #TimeForaNap

How strong is the wind today at Doral? Strong enough to rip up one of @DonaldTrump‘s palm trees. pic.twitter.com/heURBbnRoH

Really wanted to see the new course at Doral — but the bad weather Trumped it — see what I did there?
