JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Paul Peterson opened a two-shot lead on the opening day of the Joburg Open before rain stopped play on at the Royal Johannesburg and Kensington Golf Club. Peterson, 28, was among the early starters who got through most of their rounds before wet weather left waterlogged parts of the two courses used for the tournament. Aaron Rai and Paul Waring were joint second after carding seven under 65 on the tougher East Course. Just under half the field had still to complete their rounds when play was called off for the day. It will resume early on Friday, when more wet weather is forecast.
