Newsday's Yancey Roy wrote Tuesday afternoon that the PGA Tour and New York State have come to an agreement that will bring The Barclays to the Black Course at Bethpage State Park in 2012 and 2016. The course hosted the U.S. Open in 2002 and 2009.
The Barclays is the first event of the annual FedEx Cup playoffs. This year's tournament will be held at the Plainfield Country Club in Edison, New Jersey from August 23-28.
