Could be a blessing in disguise. Our international players can't get injured for there countries if they're already injured or have covid-19, smart move.
If two people are not permitted on 200 acres of land pulling golf trolleys and walking ten metres apart, then no sport should be permitted, professional or otherwise. Morning all by the way
I just went to Wetherspoons for breakfast. They are selling all draft real ales for 99p per pint due to closing for 4 weeks.
Whilst I am not a golfer I am in full agreement, doesn't make any kind of sense whatsoever My fishing venue has closed and the casting platforms are at least 8mtrs apart.
Can't be any worse than what they sell in the Peacock, at least they sell Newkie brown in Weatherspoons...
Heck since lockdown I have dressed up as Tyler Roberts so as to watch the games live. Don't think anyone has noticed.
