Sergio Garcia withdraws from Masters after positive coronavirus test

Former Masters champion Sergio Garcia will miss this year’s event at Augusta after testing positive for coronavirus.

The 40-year-old Spaniard, who won the event in 2017, missed the cut in last week’s Houston Open.

“On Saturday night after driving back from Houston, I started feeling a bit of a sore throat and a cough,” he said.

“The symptoms stayed with me on Sunday morning so I decided to get tested and so did my wife Angela. Thankfully she tested negative, but I didn’t.” (BBC)
