SCOTTISH COURSES MUST REMAIN CLOSED FOR NOW

Scottish Golf has reiterated that courses in Scotland should not be opened before the lockdown restrictions are lifted by the Scottish Government.

This morning, Scottish Golf emailed out a statement to all its member clubs. It reads as follows:

"Following on from the Prime Minister’s announcement last night, we are writing to confirm that the position outlined by Scottish Golf on Friday, 8 May for Golf in Scotland remains unchanged. The message is still clear – Stay at home and save lives.

We remain in daily dialogue with the Scottish Government and other golfing bodies throughout the UK, to ensure that when it is deemed safe to do so in Scotland, that we are ready to support our golf clubs with a concise protocol for reopening.

We will update our membership as soon as the Scottish Government agrees a plan on a safe return to golf. Scottish Golf would like to thank all of our members for their continued support in following the guidelines in such difficult times."
