The PGA Tour announced Thursday it plans to resume the season in June with the Charles Schwab Challenge and the first four events will be closed to fans.
The announcement comes nearly two weeks after revising its majors schedule. The first PGA Tour’s first event will take place from June 8 to 14.
“The health and safety of all associated with the PGA TOUR and our global community continues to be our No. 1 priority, and our hope is to play a role – responsibly – in the world’s return to enjoying the things we love,” PGA TOUR Commissioner Jay Monahan said in a news release. “Today’s announcement is another positive step for our fans and players as we look toward the future, but as we’ve stressed on several occasions, we will resume competition only when – working closely with our tournaments, partners and communities – it is considered safe to do so under the guidance of the leading public health authorities.”
Tour officials said it would work with local and state health officials to determine the proper course of action in each market in regards to when fans could safely watch their favorite golfers tee off.
