USGA Championships and COVID-19Updated March 17, 2020
The USGA has been carefully monitoring all information available regarding the Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 and remains focused on the health and safety of the USGA community, including our staff, players, officials, volunteers and spectators. We have established an internal task force and are communicating on a regular basis with our peers in the golf community and the broader sports world as information on this evolving issue continues to be shared. Our leadership continues to follow current guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization and will remain vigilant in working with local and state authorities to monitor the virus and its implications for the entire USGA community.
Our championship season runs through September, with the U.S. Women’s Open, U.S. Open, and U.S. Senior Open being played in June, and as of today, we have not made any decisions to alter the dates of those championships. We are committed to being proactive in updating our constituents regarding any changes, and will provide more information as it becomes available.
In the event that any of our championships are canceled or conducted without on-site attendance, we will refund our customers.
