The LPGA remains prepared to open its gates to fans early in its restart in Ohio amid the growing coronavirus pandemic.
LPGA commissioner Mike Whan said Wednesday that he will probably know within 48 hours whether the Marathon Classic will allow spectators for tournament rounds Aug. 6-9 at Highland Meadows Golf Club in suburban Toledo.
“They’re waiting for some local health input on that, but we’re good to go,” Whan said. “We’ve got a plan whether we have fans or not.”
The news comes with the PGA Tour amid back-to-back events in Ohio, with no fans allowed at either event.
