U.S. Women's Open golf tournament rescheduled for December

The U.S. Women's Open in Houston has been rescheduled from the beginning of June to the middle of December, the USGA announced on Friday. And the men's U.S Open at Winged Foot in Mamaroneck, scheduled for June 18-21, is likely to be postponed.

The USGA said the COVID-19 pandemic has led the Women's Open at Champions Golf Club to be moved from June 4-7 to Dec. 10-13.

In regards to the Open at Winged Foot, the USGA's Craig Annis said in an email to Newsday on Friday: "It is increasingly likely that we will need to postpone. We should be in a position to make a decision by next week. At this point, we are not in a position to speculate on alternative dates but do believe we could play the U.S. Open at Winged Foot through September."
