Walmart NW Arkansas Championship Canceled Due to Severe Weather Conditions
The LPGA has announced the cancellation of the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship due to heavy rainfall that rendered the course unplayable. After overnight rains and an unfavorable forecast, organizers were forced to halt the tournament, which had already been shortened to 18 holes. Players, including top golfer Nelly Korda, experienced disruptions and expressed gratitude for the support received amid the challenging conditions. Additionally, thousands of meals were donated following the cancellation. As uncertainty looms over potential payment for players, the LPGA continues to address the situation as it develops.
