LPGA Plans For Restart In July, Pushes Women's PGA To October

The LPGA is "pushing back its schedule yet another month because of the coronavirus pandemic," with plans to return July 15-18 at the Dow Great Lakes Bay Invitational team event in Midland, Mich., according to Randall Mell of GOLFCHANNEL.com. With the latest revision, five more LPGA events "are being canceled," including the UL Int'l Crown. The pandemic has now "affected 22 of the LPGA’s 34 events, with nine canceled and 13 rescheduled." The revised schedule "stretches from mid-July to the third week of December" (GOLFCHANNEL.com, 4/29). GOLFWEEK's Beth Ann Nichols notes the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship is the "latest major to move to a fall date." Originally scheduled for late June, the championship "will now be held Oct. 8-11" at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pa. The AIG Women’s British Open "remains on the schedule in late August even though the men’s British Open has been canceled" (GOLFWEEK.com, 4/29).
