THE 2013 U.S. OPEN began early Thursday morning at Merion Golf Club in Ardmore, Pennsylvania. Play was suspended at 8:36 a.m. due to a severe storm that is expected to disrupt play for much of the day. Ian Poulter is the early leader at 3 under par. Starting on the 11th hole, Poulter carded three consecutive birdies before play was suspended.
