Golf: European Tour confirms July 22 start after near three-month suspension

Golf’s European Tour, suspended since March due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will resume with the British Masters on July 22, as part of a six-tournament schedule to be run in the United Kingdom.

Events will take place without fans in attendance and strict health protocols in place.
