SÉAMUS POWER HAS made the cut at the Bank of Utah Championship after overcoming play being suspended to card a one-under 70, and finish his second round on two-under overall.
Power had 15 holes of his round completed when play was suspended for the second day in a row due to darkness. He was on the projected one-under cut line at the time, and finished on the two-under cut-line after a crucial birdie on the seventh, and back-to-back pars on his last two holes.

The Waterford man is eight shots off American leader Michael Brennan who is on 10-under.
Power, who is battling to secure his PGA Tour card for 2026, started his second round on the back nine and had a disappointing start as he bogeyed the 11th before dropping another shot at the 16th. A birdie on 18 saw him make the turn at one-over but he was briefly back to two-over again with a third bogey on the second.
Two birdies on the third and sixth restored his momentum and brought him back to even par when play was suspended. His composed run through the final three holes keeps him in the tournament.
The Utah competition is one of four PGA Tour events left where Power can save his card for the 2026 season. Power is currently outside the top 125 in FedEx Rankings in 135th.
Meanwhile, Pádraig Harrington is nine shots off the lead at the Simmons Bank Championship after an opening round of two-under 70 which leaves him in a tie for 18th.
Darren Clarke is also in action, and is currently on four-under in a tie for eighth after a round of 68 which leaves him seven shots behind leader Steven Alker of New Zealand who is on 11-under.
