Dustin Johnson can picture it now: competing down the stretch on a Sunday afternoon in a PGA Tour event, as intensity reaches its peak and the crowd begins to buzz.
But in reality, it will be silent. Golf’s upcoming return will take place without fans lining the fairways or huddling around the tee boxes and greens.
“The fans are very important,” Johnson said during an appearance on the Joey Vendetta Show. “They bring excitement (and) it’s part of the sport. It’s gonna be different. It’s gonna take time to adjust to it.
“But obviously for the first few events and while all this is going on with the coronavirus, that’s how it’s gotta be for right now if we want to continue to operate and play our sport.”
