because it can be beastly hot here at the end of May.

My thoughts were "restarting" the tour with this tournament was probably the plan.

The Byron Nelson in Dallas is now cancelled; it was still on the postponed list a few days ago. Byron Nelson and Colonial are normally played back to back. Some of the big tournaments are wrapped around to the end of summer (currently) There are 2 slots in June and July that are still open but damn! it'll be hot. The folks checking in with me will be close to heatstroke for sure; I am very glad my venue is inside the clubhouse.. I think I will stock a cooler full of damp towels nearby in case they are needed.

The last correspondence I received indicated everything is in a holding pattern, so I am just leaving everything in limbo for now. I do hope we have the tournament even if it is postponed; it is one of the highlights of my year.

This is an invitational, with about 200 on the list, so there could be a decent field in terms of size without overseas players.

Yesterday 189 new cases were identified in Texas; I was actually expecting more
