The Ryder Cup has been suspended for a year.
Padraig Harrington was due to captain Europe in their defence of the trophy against the US in September.
The postponement follows advice from medical experts and the public authorities in Wisconsin.
The 43rd Ryder Cup, scheduled for the week of September 22-27 at Whistling Straits in Kohler, Wisconsin, has been rescheduled for the week of September 21-26, 2021.
Its suspension means Adare Manor’s hosting of the tournament has been pushed back a year to 2027, which purely be fate, will mark the 100th anniversary of the Ryder Cup.
