Hurricane Matthew has left devastation up and down Florida's Eastern seaboard and has now reached Jacksonville, Fla.
The Web.com Tour Championship was supposed to be held at nearby Atlantic Beach Country Club this weekend before the impending weather prompted the event's cancelation.
While golf is by no means first on anyone's priority list during a storm of this magnitude, reports from Jacksonville indicate that the famed island green at TPC Sawgrass, the 17th, is taking on water.
