Heavy rains flooded fairways and high winds felled several trees at La Costa, forcing postponement Thursday of the opening round of the $1-million Mercedes Championships golf tournament.

Weather permitting, players in the PGA’s season-opening event at Carlsbad, formerly called the Tourament of Champions, will play 36 holes today, then 18 holes Saturday and Sunday.
