Canadian golfers not changing plans as novel coronavirus spreads
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Despite the spread of the novel coronavirus, it’s business as usual for Canadian golfers on the PGA Tour.
The five Canadians playing this week at The Players Championship, the PGA Tour’s flagship event, are trying to not let the health crisis impact what they’re doing on the course.
“I’m not worried about it too much,” said Corey Conners of Listowel, Ont. “I’m digging into some research about it and it’s obviously not something you want to get or spread around, but I think the tour is doing a good job and I feel pretty safe.”
Conners said the tour has been in contact with the players and is co-ordinating efforts with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the U.S.
