Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka and Kevin Na assessed their prospects on Wednesday at the Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas, where the PGA Tour season resumes on Thursday with the Charles Schwab Challenge. It will be the first tour event since the Arnold Palmer Invitational in early March, with the coronavirus pandemic halting play for over three months.

There will be no 08:46 a.m. tee time at Colonial this week in tribute to George Floyd, and to support efforts to end racial and social injustice.

PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan announced on Tuesday that there would be a moment of silence at 8:46 a.m. in each of the four rounds.

The time reflects the length of time - eight minutes and 46 seconds - authorities say Floyd was pinned to the ground under a white Minneapolis police officer's knee before he died.
