PGA Tour modifies guidelines for positive coronavirus tests, LPGA readies for resumption
FirstpostBased on the new guidelines, the PGA Tour is doing away with what became known as the “COVID-19 groups.” The PGA Tour enters its eighth week of its return to golf with another modification to its guidelines for positive coronavirus tests and a gradual broadening of who gets to attend tournaments. The tour originally said three weeks ago, based on guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, that players or caddies who tested positive with symptoms could return after 10 days of isolation and at least 72 hours without a fever. But while the PGA Tour is in its eighth week of a domestic schedule, the LPGA has two weeks in Ohio before it heads to Scotland for two tournaments — including its first major at the Women’s British Open. “I’m still more concerned that America doesn’t take it as seriously as the rest of the world,” Westwood said after hosting the British Masters last week in England.
