FLORIDA (Agencies): The US PGA Tour on Thursday announced plans to resume in June, with the first four tournaments being closed to spectators due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The tour suspended its season after the first round of the Players Championship last month, previously targeting a return on May 21. The extended suspension means that the Canadian Open and the Barbasol Championship have been cancelled.
The postponed Charles Schwab Challenge, which tees off on June 11 in Texas, is scheduled to be the first event after the resumption.
“The health and safety of all associated with the PGA Tour and our global community continues to be our number one priority, and our hope is to play a role — responsibly — in the world’s return to enjoying the things we love,” said PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan.
