Which event in the 2011 FedEx Cup playoffs was shortened due to Hurricane Irene? The answer is The Barclays.

The Barclays was the opening event of the 2011 FedEx Cup playoffs and was played at Plainfield Country Club in Edison, New Jersey. The tournament was scheduled for 72 holes.

Because Hurricane Irene was expected to arrive in the area on Sunday, 28 August, PGA Tour officials shortened the competition to 54 holes. The event therefore concluded on Saturday before the worst weather reached the region.

Dustin Johnson won The Barclays by two strokes over Matt Kuchar, finishing at 19 under par. Johnson’s victory moved him to first place in the FedEx Cup standings. Dustin Johnson was the tournament winner, not the name of the shortened event.
