As Henri nears, Monday finish possible at The Northern Trust

JERSEY CITY, N.J. – With Tropical Storm Henri closing in on the New York metropolitan area, the PGA Tour announced Friday that it’s taking a wait-and-see approach with the circuit’s first playoff event scheduled to finish just as the storm is predicted to make landfall.

The current path has Henri coming ashore well east of Jersey City on Sunday, although the local forecast for the final round at Liberty National calls for an 86-percent chance of rain.

“We will evaluate the track of Henri throughout the day [Saturday] and expect to issue the plan and schedule for the final round by late afternoon Saturday,” the Tour said in a statement.
