MARANA, Ariz. -- The tournament that almost didn't get started, with a suspension because of a snowstorm Wednesday and then five separate delays on Thursday, came to a sudden end for the top two seeds in the Accenture Match Play Championship.
Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods both were losers. McIlroy, No. 1 in the world golf rankings, was stunned 1 up by Irishman Steve Lowry. Woods fell 2 and 1 to Charles Howell III, who even in friendly matches had never beaten him.
