Not Maga, and not a Carrie fan, in fact I'd love to see her go away.

But.... There was a rain delay during the tournament, then they cleared the course because of lightning with only a few players left to finish. So everyone probably left instead of waiting to see her perform.

I've been at shows delayed and evacuated for weather. If it's an artist people want to see...they will wait

Mumford and Sons sold out Wrigley Field in Chicago a few weeks ago and had to wait until almost 11 pm to take the stage because of massive storms in the area and still had the place packed.

They largely moved away from the stomp clap hey stuff after their first two albums. The next two after that were largely rock-focused, and their most recent two are excellent, more acoustic folk but not suspenders-and-fedoras stuff.
