Golfers were asked to leave the course when there was a risk of injury due to falling tree limbs around the course.
However, players can make up for lost time with two events being held over the coming weekend.
There will be a stableford competition on Saturday which will also incorporate a Irish 4 Ball event.
Golfers are also reminded that the Tuross Head Country Club Senior Open, an 18 hole stableford competition, is being held on Sunday, September 23.
There will be awards for men and ladies overall winners together with A and B grade divisions and runners-up.
