[Golf Topic] Koepka and Woodland's Coach "I Think I Caught COVID-19"

[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…The coach of Brooks Koepka (USA), ranked 3rd in the world, showed symptoms of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Famous golf coach Pete Cowen from England said in an interview with The Telegraph on the 23rd (Korean time), "I think I have contracted COVID-19," adding, "I have not yet been confirmed positive, but I am showing symptoms of COVID-19." After feeling the symptoms, he entered self-quarantine and called the hospital to request a test. Cowen is a swing expert who coaches Koepka, Gary Woodland (USA), Henrik Stenson (Sweden), and Graeme McDowell (Northern Ireland).

It is known that he went on-site to the PGA Tour "The Players Championship" (total prize money $15 million), known as the "fifth major," held at TPC Sawgrass (Par 72, 7,189 yards) in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, USA, on the 13th, where only the first round was played before cancellation, and met Koepka and Woodland. Woodland sent a message to Golfweek in the US, saying, "Cowen informed me that he is in self-quarantine," and updated, "My family and I are fine."
