THE LPGA Tour made it through its second week without any of its players testing positive for the coronavirus at the Marathon Classic.
That still didn’t keep two players from withdrawing in Sylvania, Ohio, because of their caddies.
The LPGA Tour says the caddies for Perrine Delacour and Allie White received positive tests. Both players withdrew because of their close contact with them, and the tour has begun contact tracing.
There will be plenty of time to self-isolate.
After the Marathon Classic, the LPGA leaves for Scotland for two weeks, returning to the United States on Aug. 28 for the NW Arkansas Championship.
Big-hitting Filipina golfer Bianca Pagdanganan, joint 28th in the LPGA Drive Oo Championship at Inverness, has an early start on Thursday morning.
She made her mark by playing fine in tough conditions, while topping the tournament in average driving distance at 295.33.
Pagdanganan starts with Jennifer Chang of the US and Daniela Darquea of Ecuador.
Clariss Guce and Dottie Ardina are also seeing action.
