LIVE GOLF

From Thursday, Sky Sports Golf HD

After being on hold since March, the PGA Tour restarts its schedule on Thursday with the Charles Schwab Challenge from the Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas. Although several Europe-based players have chosen not to take part in the event, which is being held without spectators, the tournament will feature the best field in its history. World No.1 Rory McIlroy heads the pack alongside Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Jon Rahm, and Patrick Reed. ‘It’s exciting to have something to look forward to, and I’m going to be ready,’ says Koepka. ‘Now we can get back into the swing of things and playing golf again competitively.’ Last year, Korean-American Kevin Na triumphed after firing a final-round 66 for a four-shot victory over Tony Finau.
