At a Glance Lightning struck a tree at the PGA Tour Championship.

Play was suspended by bad weather at the time of the strike.

Several people were injured by debris from the tree as it was struck. Lightning struck a pine tree at the PGA Tour Championship near Atlanta late Saturday afternoon, injuring six people.

The tournament, which was being held at the East Lake Golf Club, was already in a weather delay because of the approaching storms.

According to the PGA tour, "at 4:17 p.m., the third round of the TOUR Championship was suspended due to inclement weather in the area. At 4:45 p.m., there were two lightning strikes at East Lake Golf Club; a tree near the range/15 green/16 tee was hit."

The lightning struck ahead of the parent thunderstorms, but thunder was heard before the strikes hit the course. It was drizzling at the time of the strike.

Brad Uhl of Atlanta was among those crammed under a hospitality tent to the right of the 16th hole that was open to the public.

“There was just a big explosion and then an aftershock so strong you could feel the wind from it,” Ulh said after the last of the ambulances pulled out of the golf course. “It was just a flash out of the corner of the eye. It was raining and everyone was huddled near the tree.”

The explosion was heard on the other end of the course, according to weather.com editor Sean Breslin , who was attending the Championship. Shelter was difficult to find around the event, and some people were forced to take shelter under trees, Breslin said.

The lightning struck the top and shattered bark all the way to the bottom. The strike was caught on camera.

The lightning strike did not directly hit anyone, but debris from the tree struck several people.

Atlanta Police spokesman James H. White III said five men and one female juvenile had sought shelter beneath a tree.

One person was treated at the scene, and five others were taken to a hospital, the PGA Tour said. All five were treated and released Saturday night.

The PGA Tour canceled the rest of golf Saturday, with the round to resume at 8 a.m. Sunday, followed by the final round.

Scattered storms will continue to move through northern Georgia through the weekend as a cold front sags into the Southeast.

This is the second weekend a lightning strike made golf news. Last weekend, the hotel Phil Mickelson was staying was struck by lightning and caught fire while he was inside. He and everyone else made it out safely.
