One round to go, leading by 6 strokes, probably couldn't lose the tournament if he tried, and now tests positive for COVID. 😭

I'm of the opinion that they opened up the tournaments
to unlimited spectators too soon.

Speith tested positive a few weeks ago too. Other golfers have tested positive too, but not with 3 rounds finished in a tournament.

His mother and father are in the U.S. for the first time since the beginning of 2020, and they just met his new son for the first time. I don't know how this will affect their return to Spain, his baby son etc.

I really feel for the guy.
