Everyone does the correct measures to where we can continue to have such positive results or i guess i didnt mean positive, negative positive results from the tests and continue to play at the highest level and give everyone some sports to watch. So in an effort to detect early signs of covid19, golfers and caddies at the pga may be seen wearing a socalled fitness strap. This comes after the golfer nick watneys device showed something might be wrong with his body. Soon after he became the first pga tour player to test positive for coronavirus. These devices monitor the wearers heart rate, strain, sleep and recovery patterns. Major League Baseball will include some changeups in its rule book when the season opens in one month.
