The second round of the Handa Australian Women's Open will be completed on Saturday morning after Friday's play was suspended just after 5pm local time because of bad weather.
Quite a few players, including Carly Booth and Krystle Caithness, will have an early start on Saturday morning.
Yani Tsend (70-67) leads those who have completed 36 holes.
Clare Queen slipped from her prominent first-day position with a four-over-par 77 for 148 and a share of 48th place.
The Scot bogeyed the second, third and fourth, birdied the 13th but bogeyed the 14th and 16th.
Kylie Walker improved by nine shots on Round 1 with a 73 for 157. Playing out of The Carrick on Loch Lomond - as does Clare Q - Kylie birdied three par-5s: the second, the sixth and the 15th. She also finished strongly with birdies at the 16th and 18th.
On the downside she had a double bogey at the 11th and bogeys at the first, fourth and 14th to be in joint 135th place.
Vikki Laing added an 80 to her opening 83 for 163 and a share of 143rd place. The Musselburgh player, who is attached to Kings Acre Golf Academy, had birdies at the fifth and long 13th but had double bogey 6s at the 11th and 18th. She also bogeyed the third, sixth, 14th, 15th and 16th.
The projected cut is 149 or better to qualify which means it is very likely that the only Scot to survive will be the only one who had to prequalify, namely Clare Queen.
