Bermuda Championship ‘Scheduled, But Fluid’
The Bermuda Championship golf event currently remains scheduled for October 26 to November 1, but the “situation is very fluid,” the organisers said.
The Bermuda Championship website said, “On March 17, the PGA TOUR made the announcement that due to the ongoing health crisis related to COVID-19, all PGA TOUR events through May 10 have been cancelled. Furthermore, the PGA of America has postponed the PGA Championship [May 14–17] for a date later this year, to be announced.
“With this news, we wanted to give you an update on the 2020 Bermuda Championship, which remains scheduled for October 26 to November 1.
“First and foremost, the health and safety of everyone associated with the Bermuda Championship and our community will continue to be our No. 1 priority as we navigate the impact of COVID-19.
“Naturally, this is a very fluid situation that requires constant review, communication and transparency. As we prepare for our event this fall, we will continue to monitor information provided by the World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control, along with local authorities. On a regular basis, we will provide status updates, including any additional protocols put in place to ensure the health and safety of all in attendance as we get closer to our tournament.
“We will continue to provide updates as new information becomes available.”
