Where are they going to move it to? I've read that it should stay in NJ, at least them money that would have gone to local businesses will stay in the state.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

I read an article that said many courses have reached out to say they can make it happen. Not sure where, but they certainly won’t have any trouble finding a suitable venue.

The R&A shuts the door on Trump as well:

The R&A follows the PGA of America, which moved the 2022 PGA Championship from Trump Bedminster

I'm voting for Lighthouse Point.  It's lighted so they can move the tournament into prime time.  With all those flags in the pic and some snow it could double as an Olympic downhill slalom course.

That's gotta be tough to plan for, May 2022. Do you assume live attendance will be allowed by then and sell tickets?

Absolutely!  85% of us will get the vaccine.  Chip or no chip.  Actually, if the gub'mint wants to track me around the golf course, fine... that'll be boring.

Once you go down that road of "boycotting" or moving tournaments away because a few people don't like the venue, the people running the tournament, or its political leaders, we might never see golf played again.

 You would be correct in instances where there are "a few".

But when you are talking in the hundreds of millions worldwide and probably close to 60% of the population in the USA, it makes sound business and moral sense.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

"Few" is a code word for few.

If support for the tournament falls they would care. 
 

Hopefully not, would hate for that to happen.
