Try this:

Park it in direct sun just like this for a few hours and see if the material will allow it to close after it's warm. You may have to help the last 1/2 inch even then. Leave it up in the sun and let everything settle into position.

This^^^^
It needs to stretch back out. It will be fine after you close it a couple of times especially after it sits in the sun.
