[Asia Economy Reporter Noo Rae] ○…The 2020/2021 season of the U.S. Professional Golfers' Association (PGA) Tour will unfold as a 'super season.'


The PGA Tour announced on the 3rd (Korean time) that it will hold as many as 50 tournaments, including six majors. This is because 14 events that were canceled or postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic this year will be held in the new season. The 2020/2021 season will begin with the Safeway Open on the 11th. The US Open, scheduled for the following week, and the Masters in November will be held again in April and June next year. The Open Championship, which was canceled this year, will also take place in July next year.



Including the PGA Championship in May next year, the 2020/2021 season will feature six majors for golf fans. Moreover, the Tokyo Olympics, which were canceled this year, and the Ryder Cup, the golf competition between the U.S. and Europe, will also be part of the 2020/2021 season. Jay Monahan, PGA Tour Commissioner, said, "Scheduling the tour is already very complicated, but organizing the new season was truly challenging," adding, "It will be more exciting for golf fans than any other season."
