Another lighting alert prohibited the R2 of the Dunlop SRIXON Fukushima Open to conclude. The lightening warning came at 15:20. Play did resume at 17:00, but at 18:56 it was called suspended due to sunset.

Total of 9 groups, 27 players were not able to hole out. Their play will resume tomorrow at 6:30 am and R3 will follow after from 9:00 am.

Ryuko Tokimatsu who has finished his R2 at total 15 under is the provisional leader. Ryuichi Oiwa is 1 shot behind, and Yoshikazu Haku and Tomohiro Ishizaka are 3T with 4 shot deficit.

7th year professional Kenshiro Ikegami, who finished with total 10 under at provisional 5T, made Hole-in-One on Par 3 202 yards 12th. According to the fans who watched the miraculous shots said, the tee shot by 6 Iron directly dunked into the cup.
"I heard the crowd saying it went in, but the green was undulated and couldn't see it go in. Too bad I missed seeing it since it was my first time to do so on the Tour."

Tournament has prepared a surprise for Kenshiro Ikegami, before he starts his R3 tomorrow.
