Na skipping Deutsche Bank to be with wife, baby

NORTON, Mass. – At 14th on the FedEx Cup points list, Kevin Na is poised to make a run at the season-long title but his campaign will have to wait a week.

Na skipped this week’s Deutsche Bank Championship to be at home with his wife, Sophia Ria, for the birth of the couple’s first child, a daughter who was born on Monday.

According to Na’s caddie, Kenny Harms, the 32-year-old plans to be back at work next week at the BMW Championship and the Tour Championship to close the season if he stays inside the top 30 on the points list.
