The Irish Open has moved to the end of May and a new UK event has been confirmed
2020 European Tour Schedule Revealed
The European Tour's 2020 schedule has been released with a minimum of 46 tournaments taking place across 29 countries.
The main headline is that the Irish Open's move to the end of May has been confirmed due to the fact that it would have clashed with the WGC-FedEx St Jude Invitational which moved due to the Olympics.
Whilst that shouldn't affect the tournament too badly, it does rule out any likelihood of the big names coming to play.
We've heard nothing about that other than that more details to come on that later this year.
