Courses not yet done in Links:
TPC Twin Cities, Blaine, Minnesota
TPC Southwind, Memphis, Tennessee
TPC Harding Park, San Francisco, California---Simplified version done by John Brooks exists
Sedgefield Country Club, Greensboro, North Carolina
I did purposely leave out Tahoe Mountain Club (Old Greenwood), Truckee, California since it is an alternate event to World Golf Tour event.

I enjoyed playing along at last week's tournament at Colonial and hope pmgolf continues to post round conditions along with pin settings each week as billw had done up to this year. Also a few courses are not yet done in Links and it would be nice to see them since each year tournaments are played on them, or in case of TPC Harding Park, San Francisco, California this course will host a major this year and has frequently hosted other tournaments in last few years. I write this about possible courses to be done in Links to those with skill ability to do so as these are courses most all Links players have seen before on tv. Beyond just the PGA Tour venues other courses I have mentioned in past as possibly good courses to be designed in Links would be those in top 100 of Golf Digest's latest lists of USA or rest of the world. A couple of the courses are said to be in works by some designers that I have seen mentioned for the schedule listed below.

It would seem that change is always happening. https://www.golfdigest.com/story/pga-to ... ment-to-re
The John Deere has been cancelled with a replacement tournament already set up. According to article "The Workday Charity Open will be a full-field event held at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio beginning July 6. The tour will be at the property back-to-back weeks, as Jack Nicklaus’ Memorial Tournament follows the Workday event. This development was initially reported in early June." Also there is mention that Muirfield Village course will undergo yet more renovations after the back to back tournaments.

From the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch:
"Other course changes include a handful of new fairway bunkers; part of a total renovation to begin the day after the Memorial ends that includes all new bunkers, rebuilt greens and re-grassed fairways and tees."

This article gives a little more information: https://www.pgatour.com/news/2019/10/01 ... tions.html
I was hoping that hole #16 might have more slopes added making it more like the one at Augusta and hole #18 might have a better drive than way exists now, but those are not in works it seems.

Nice article. i haven't been to the tournament in over 20 years, but, from watching it on the tube, I like when he redid 16. And tv does no justice to the terrain of that course. I would love to stand in the gallery by the 16th to be able to see the "after" compared to how I remember the "before."

I know. well after the last time I went to the event. I remember Jack talking about the change. He said it had always been a way to get to #17 from #15 before the change.

Saw watching sports last night Ryder Cup scheduled September 21-27 has been postponed until next year and that sets President's Cup back until sometime to be played in 2022. The week Ryder Cup was to be played this year has a small tournament in Dominican Republic still planned to be played and it is at a course other than Casa de Campo designed by Pete Dye.

Also you can add Torrey Pines North course to the list as they play the Farmers Insurance Group Open there and Torrey Pines South course
