Among the universal takeaways of Sunday’s TaylorMade Driving Relief match was golf’s continued ability to produce for charities, even during the COVID-19 pandemic, and that when play does resume on the PGA Tour it might be best to keep expectations low.
Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, Rickie Fowler and Matthew Wolff all showed varying degrees of rust during the 18-hole skins match at Seminole Golf Club and given the uncertainty of the last few months it seemed perfectly understandable.
Whether that same level of rust will be on display next month when the Tour restarts its schedule at the Charles Schwab Challenge remains to be seen, but Charley Hoffman weighed in during a conference call with reporters on Wednesday.
