Hunter Mahan was in prime position to capture his first PGA Tour victory of the year this weekend. A stellar second round 64 vaulted him into the lead, and conditions at Glen Abbey in Ontario were prime for scoring today. There was just one problem: his wife Kandi went into labor. The couple had been expecting a baby girl for some time, and Mahan knew he may have to withdraw from a tournament if the time came (Kandi?s expected due date was after August?s PGA Championship). He only hit a few balls on the practice range before his agent received a call from Kandi. Hunter immediately withdrew from the tournament, and headed to the airport.
