Despite coronavirus concerns, Tiger Woods' new Branson golf course is still on track to open in 2020

Despite coronavirus concerns putting a halt to pretty much everything, the plan for Tiger Woods' first public access golf course to open in Branson this year is still on.

Bass Pro Shops Director of Communications Jack Wlezien told the News-Leader the course remains on track for a full opening in 2020.

"Golf is a great form of social distancing and a healthy stress reliever in these uncertain times," Wlezien said. "As spring comes into bloom, we are modifying our operations to safely accommodate golfers on our world-class courses."

Payne's Valley will be the first public golf course designed by Woods.
