The Masters won’t be played this year I’m afraid.  Let’s just hope and pray this all passes faster than some think it will take!
That your prediction? I tend to agree. But I've heard that October 8-11 is the new possible date.


IMHO The Masters is the most likely major to be played this year.
Flexibility, forward thinking, infrastructure in place,  recognition of critical nature of effect on Augusta economy-especially this year

If Tiger is healthy it will be played.

Hotels around and in Augusta are canceling hotel reservations in that time frame (because they can charge several times the cost they were booked for otherwise).

May just be highly speculative on their part, though, from the same rumors and scuttlebutt others have heard.

Erik,
Fall time frame would be the absolute earliest so let’s hope you are right 😊
