In dire need of something to lift our spirits, the PGA Tour came through on Thursday, announcing that its 2019-2020 season will resume June 11-14, with the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth Texas.

It will be contested with no fans in attendance, as will the next three events, though the fan situation is in flux.
“At this time the Tour plans to resume play with the first four events closed to the general public but will continue to monitor the situation and follow the recommendations of local and state authorities in order to determine the most appropriate on-site access in each market,” the Tour announced. “As such the Tour will continually review available COVID-19-related protocols that could be implemented at PGA Tour events to ensure the health and well-being for all involved.
Highlight events on the calendar:
• July 13-19: Memorial Tournament, Muirfield Village Golf Club, Dublin, Ohio
