The economic loss will be huge...Hotels, resturants, transportation, area shopping, merchandise, etc.

The economic realities are beginning to settle in. Sports brings in a lot of money, period.

The commissioner actually consulted with Trump last night. One player C.T. Pan was so disgusted with the tour's lack of preparation and apparent concern that he withdrew from the Players Championship this week. Pan said there were no hand sanitizers or basically anything.

The Players is going on normally today but beginning tomorrow spectators will not be allowed for the next several weeks.

Then the big test is what they do with the Masters beginning April 9.

It is ridiculous listening to Paul Azinger and the other golf commentators today. They are joking around as if nothing out of the norm
