For nearly two months, Brooke Henderson has been at her Florida home playing a little golf, working with her coach, and when it was still going on, she caught a little MLB spring training action.
The one thing she hasn’t done is compete on the LPGA Tour, as the golf world navigates unprecedented times with the global outbreak of COVID-19.
Henderson, Canada’s winningest golfer on either the PGA or LPGA Tour and a gold-medal favourite at the Tokyo Olympics this summer — assuming they continue as planned — will not tee it up again until at least early April.
The schedule change means Henderson, who took a pass on the two events in Australia that preceded the events in Asia, will not play on the LPGA Tour for 80 days.
