[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…Dylan Frittelli (South Africa, photo) has tested positive for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).


The PGA Tour announced on the 29th (Korean time) that "Frittelli tested positive for COVID-19." Frittelli said, "Fortunately, my smart band alerted me last night that my respiratory rate had slightly increased," adding, "I have no symptoms and physically feel fine, but I was surprised to hear that I tested positive. I look forward to returning to the tour." Frittelli won his first PGA Tour title at the John Deere Classic in July last year.



He missed the cut at last week's Travelers Championship. Due to the positive COVID-19 test, he will withdraw from the Rocket Mortgage Classic, held on the 2nd of next month at Detroit Golf Club in Detroit, Michigan, and enter self-quarantine. Since the PGA Tour resumed the season after suspending it due to COVID-19, Frittelli is the fourth player to test positive. Previously, Nick Watney, Cameron Champ, and Danny McCarthy (all from the United States) tested positive.
