The R&A is planning to stage the 2021 Open Championship independent of whether fans will be in attendance.
"We will play The Open this year," R&A chief executive Martin Slumbers said, per Sky Sports News' Keith Jackson. "We are certainly planning to stage The Open, but clearly at this point there are multiple scenarios.
"We are working with the government and health authorities, and it's certainly a lot more complex than staging a normal Open Championship. But we are going to do everything we possibly can to put on a great Championship for the country.
