Seven other professional golf tournaments in Canada have joined Kelowna in having their events cancelled because of the coronavirus crisis.
On Friday, the Mackenzie Tour announced that it has cancelled its 2020 season for a variety of reasons, including mandatory quarantines for those entering Canada and gathering restrictions in all provinces.
Also known as the PGA’s Canadian Tour, the Mackenzie Tour holds tournaments across the country, including the GolfBC Championship at Gallagher’s Canyon in Kelowna that was to run June 11-14.
On April 16, though, the PGA said it was postponing the first six scheduled events of 2020, which included Kelowna. At the same time, it said more news was expected regarding the schedule.
