Heavy rain leaving the course unplayable has wiped out the final two rounds of the LPGA NW Arkansas Championship, making it an unofficial event, the tour announced on Sunday.

Only scores from Friday's opening round of the 54-hole event will be counted and no season points will be awarded from the tournament at Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers, Arkansas.
