The LPGA said Marina Alex had no symptoms when she tested positive before leaving for Inverness. "I know this virus has affected so many lives and it is not something I am taking lightly". In the last seven days, she said, she has tested negative for the coronavirus three times. "I am self-isolating and will be following all the CDC and LPGA guidelines to get back to competing on Tour in a safe manner". I am really looking forward to returning to competition next week at the Marathon Classic. "Good luck to girls competing this week".
