Prior to the event - seems to me these PCR tests are rampant for false positives…. Any idea of this is a reasonable fear - that she will have a false positive?

I mean it's golf. Why is a test required?
So stupid.

Where is the test done?

How easy is it to forge a test?

You're more likely to die catching a stray ball to the head or being eaten by a reptile than catching covid on a golf course.

Golf especially for young people is probably the safest sport in terms of COVID risk.

Instead of the PCR test, they should have a comorbidity test. If you have greater than 1 comorbidity you are not allowed on the tournament grounds.

Tell her to wear a Build Back Better Shirt and cheat.

That's stupid as shite, but not surprising. I'd have her take as many as needed to get a negative result.

Good Luck to your daughter!

just because we live in Babylon Bee world, I can foresee headlines that say:

“Since coronavirus has animal reservoirs, we need to protect golf course animals from golfers”

Everybody I know that’s had a PCR test has waited anywhere from 3-5 days. No idea how to expedite those things.

Thank u for the replies. It is so stupid - but not much we can do about it - apparently lots of teams are pushing back - my kids are not in public school - they do it at home and they practice golf and go to trainjng… so not much chance for a random exposure…

Those kids in public school are just playing the lottery not I have a random exposure knock them out of the playoffs… sad as they have worked so hard to get there - my oldest is also in the drive chip and putt regional final - but it’s at Oak Hill in NY - so we are petrified they may not even let out of state people in we will see I suppose

but this PCR thing scares me as I saw so many Ohio state players have to sit out Clemson and bama for false positive tests…

PCR is unreliable. It's not even questionable now.
