100,000: Amount, in dollars, that a PGA Tour player would be eligible to receive under the Tour’s stipend program if he were to test positive for coronavirus, according to a report by Golfweek’s Adam Schupak. Any player who tests positive for the virus is asked to follow the PGA Tour’s health and safety guidelines, which includes a 10-14-day self-isolation period. The health plan was introduced before the Tour ended its recent three-month suspension during the pandemic. Seven players recently cited exposure to the virus and pulled out of this week’s Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Conn.
