The PGA Tour has set aside the 8:46 a.m. tee time on Thursday at both the Charles Schwab Challenge and the Korn Ferry Tour Challenge to honor the memory of George Floyd.
The tee time will go unused with no players teeing off and a moment of silence will be conducted for Floyd, who died on May 25 while in policy custody, sparking worldwide protests.
The moment of silence will begin with three horn blasts coordinated through PGA Tour rules officials on the site of each event — Colonial Country Club in Forth Worth, Texas and TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
Players on the course and at the venues will be asked to pause and support the PGA Tour’s commitment to addressing racial and social issues.
The tour said it is developing a long-term commitment to address those issues.
