PGA Tour to end 'coronavirus' groups and allow return to full competition - Golf Channel

The PGA Tour policy board approved a change to its Health and Safety Policy on Monday that will allow players, who continue to test positive for COVID-19 after 10 days of isolation and 72 hours without any fever or respiratory issue, to return to full competition.

Earlier this month, these players were allowed to compete on Tour but weren’t allowed access to locker rooms, fitness facilities and were only grouped with other players in the “timed out” policy. Monday’s change allows these players to compete without restrictions.

Three players – Dylan Frittelli, Harris English and Denny McCarthy – have been subject to the “timed out” policy in recent weeks and have been forced to play as a onesome or as a “coronavirus” threesome. Only McCarthy is competing this week, at the Barracuda Championship.

It remains to be seen how the policy change might impact next week’s PGA Championship. Both English and Frittelli are currently qualified for the season’s first, and only, major.

“We are continuing to review this particular situation and are discussing it with both our medical advisors and the PGA Tour as well as listening to the most recent CDC guidelines,” the PGA of America said in a statement last week.
