- The PGA Tour is poised to announce a compacted calendar this week but the coronavirus-ravaged schedule will not include the Canadian Open due to cross-border travel restrictions between the United States and Canada, TSN.ca reported on Wednesday .
The Canadian Open, currently scheduled for June 11-14, did not make the cut primarily due to border restrictions that limit non-essential travel between the U.S. and Canada.Canadian PGA Tour players were briefed on the decision during a Wednesday conference call with Golf Canada, said TSN. "This year, with so many Canadians playing on the PGA Tour and, for me, having my best year ever, it would have been great. But right now, getting back to golf seems a long way away."
The PGA Tour restart is also not likely to include fans with restrictive health and safety guidelines in place in the United States to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
