This week, the saga of weather turning out to be the antagonist of the PGA Tour events prevailed once again. At 9:06 p.m. local time, darkness suspended the opening round of the CJ Cup Byron Nelson. While Matt Wallace led the event at 8-under during the suspension, the remaining pairings resumed their rounds on Friday ahead of the second round, with Garrick Higgo, Lanto Griffin, and Davis Thompson kicking things off at 8:01 a.m.

Fortunately, after the first round, there have been no delays so far. However, that may soon change. Dark clouds (literally) seem to loom over the ultimate round of the CJ Cup, Byron Nelson, where Taylor Pendrith leads by a stroke over Jake Knapp!

On Sunday in Texas, the temperature is predicted to rise to 25 degrees and fall as low as 20 degrees. The Max UV Index will be a moderate of 3, with winds blowing from the SW direction at a moderate speed of 13 kmph. Wind gusts, however, are expected to blow as fast as 20 kmph. Unfortunately, that’s not all.

There are also predictions of rain and a thunderstorm on Sunday morning in Texas, and as per reports, the rest of the day will remain cloudy and humid too. There is also an areal flood watch alert out for all from 9:06 a.m. Saturday to 1:00 p.m. Sunday!

So, if you are planning to witness the final round live, make sure to keep an umbrella with you, since the probability of precipitation is predicted to be 62% with a density of 4.5 mm. It is expected to rain for as long as 2 hours, with chances of thunderstorms as high as 37% with 93% cloud cover. As a result of the horrific weather report, even the tee timings for the final round have been moved up at the TPC Craig Ranch to prevent any disruption midway.
