- Golf’s prestigious Memorial tournament is likely to slot into the calendar on the July dates of the cancelled British Open, tournament host Jack Nicklaus said.
Nicklaus thinks it unlikely the Memorial can be staged in its original June 4-7 timeslot due to the coronavirus outbreak gripping the United States and much of the world.The tour’s website currently lists a “potential” tournament on those dates. Speaking on a cbssports.com podcast, the 18-times major champion sounded flexible and willing to work with the tour.“Right now the Memorial tournament is still on in its regular date. Whether we’ll be ready in the first of June, I seriously doubt it.The Memorial is one of the biggest tournaments outside the majors, regularly attracting a stellar field and having a major feel played in front of massive and knowledgeable galleries.
It has not played since March 12, when it shut down abruptly after the first round of the Players Championship, a day after the National Basketball Association became the first American sport to halt its season.
