Kiwi golfer Ryan Fox has minimised the damage to his US Masters hopes, before heavy rain forced suspension of play on the third day at Augusta National.
After battling illness and making the cut at three under par, Fox, 36, navigated 11 holes in miserable conditions, dropping two shots, but picking them up elsewhere, before organisers called a halt to proceedings.
American Brooks Koepka led Jon Rahm of Spain by four shots at the top of the leaderboard, while Fox was tied with world No.1 Scott Scheffler and former US Open champion Gary Woodland for 14th.
He three-putted his opening hole to immediately drop a shot, but holed a long birdie putt on the part-four third to recover the lost momentum, only to give the stroke back on the par-three fourth.
On the par-three sixth, he rolled his tee shot to about three metres and putted out for birdie, before playing out his final five holes in regulation.
After inclement weather cut short Saturday's action (NZ time), the field returned Sunday to finish the second round and begin the third after a short rest, eventually playing through a steady downpour.
Koepka, Rahm and amateur Sam Bennett made up the final threesome, and had completed six holes, when an air horn sounded at 3:15pm local time, as Augusta National Golf Club made the decision to suspend play for the rest of the day.
The third round is expected to resume Monday, followed by the final round.
Koepka was one-under par for his round to move to 13 under for the tournament. Rahm, who began the round two strokes behind Koepka, followed an early birdie with consecutive bogeys and headed to the clubhouse at nine under for the tournament.
Bennett (two over through six holes) was in third place at six under, and Patrick Cantlay, Collin Morikawa, England's Matt Fitzpatrick and Norway's Viktor Hovland were tied for fourth at five under.
After sneaking into the cut at three over, 15-time Major winner Tiger Woods dropped another six shots through his opening seven holes - including back-to-back double bogeys at 15th and 16th - before his torment was mercifully cut short.
