SOUTHERN PINES, N.C. (May 11, 2020) – On March 13, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CGA/TYGA made the decision to postpone or suspend all activities and events ultimately through May 28.  Just as we took a conservative approach in the cancelations of events at the beginning of this pandemic, we will try to do the same as we re-open tournaments.  We now want to take this opportunity to update everyone on our current plans for May 29 and beyond.

As the Carolinas re-opens, the CGA continues to base decisions o...

Golf courses all over the Carolinas are incorporating a variety of creative measures to help minimize any possible exposure to coronavirus to their golfers. Many courses have removed bunker rakes, have made adjustments to their holes and have asked their members not to touch or remove the flagstick.
