Another Monday passes with out the Limerick Summary, however that does not mean there isn't masses taking place. Here are links to a few articles approximately how golfing is surviving at some stage in the pandemic. I've got seven links for you, hitting many areas of the golfing community.

Let's begin with tournament information from this golfchannel.Com submit.

The LPGA announced Friday that the ANA Inspiration has been rescheduled to Sept. 10-13 at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California.

The Korn Ferry Tour players are having more financial worries than you might expect. This Golf Digest article details some of the financial differences between the KFT and the PGA Tour that you might not have thought about. KFT player Mark Baldwin said he's doing better than most because of one finish, and the article tells why:

For evaluation, each of the 144 gamers who teed it up within the one spherical of the Players Championship, even the ones who shot 78 or 79, obtained a take a look at for $fifty two,083. Only 18 gamers on the Korn Ferry Tour have made that tons for the entire season up to now.
