Three months. 13 weeks. 91 days. That’s how long it’s been since the PGA Tour canceled The Players Championship back in March, ultimately beginning an extended pause to the season schedule due to the coronavirus pandemic.
After a long layoff, golf makes its return this week as the PGA Tour begins a re-vamped schedule at the Charles Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas. As most of the professional sports world continues to be on hold, golf will be one of the first sports to tackle post-pandemic challenges and it has the opportunity to be a trailblazer in returning the sports landscape to some sense of normalcy.
