Message from The Landings Club on The Korn Ferry Tour

Dear fellow Landings Residents,
The PGA TOUR and The Korn Ferry Tour were the first professional sporting events to resume play since the shutdown of virtually every form of entertainment or large group events in mid-March. When the postponement of the Savannah Golf Championship was announced,  The Landings Club expressed willingness to consider a future date under the assumption that the impact of the virus would eventually abate and life would return to normal. After the establishment of rigorous operating protocols, the Korn Ferry Tour (KFT) approached our Club with options on dates. After review of the KFT’s protocols and face to face meetings with staff, our Golf Committee and then our Board of Governors, we were confident that hosting our tournament, as part of the rebooted season in late September, was reasonable and presented nominal incremental risk to any member or resident of our community. When the TOUR presented their plan, they offered a range of possibilities as follows:
- No tournament – cancelled due to local conditions, assessed at a time approaching the tournament
- Competition only tournament – no spectators, limited volunteers, no contact with Club or local individuals, similar to the GSGA Championship held this past week at Oakridge
- Local / inside the gates spectators only – no gathering spaces, no congregating, no stands – very limited volunteer needs, the golf course and player areas roped off, limited or no contact with members
- Something between what we did in past years and competition only – no stands but closer to normal with all protective protocols in place
- Normal – as was done in preceding years.
