Tournament officials announced shortly after 5 a.m. ET that tee times are on hold and play will begin no earlier than 3 p.m. All facilities at Sedgefield Country Club are closed.
The PGA Tour is expected to provide an update at noon. The first tee times were originally scheduled for 6:50 a.m.
Late Wednesday afternoon, tournament officials announced that any competition Thursday would be held without spectators on the grounds because of weather-related concerns.
Overnight, there were numerous flash-flood warnings issued for the region, which was pounded with rain.
The Wyndham Championship is the final regular-season tournament on the PGA Tour schedule. Based on results from the tournament, the final field of 70 golfers is determined for the FedExCup playoffs that begin next week.
There's a field of 156 golfers for the Wyndham Championship, which is slated to run through Sunday.
