The 2021 Australian Open and the 2022 Women's Australian Open have been cancelled as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to play havoc with international travel plans.

Golf Australia announced the tough decision on Thursday, saying it would begin planning for a return of the two Opens in the 2022-23 summer of golf.

It's the second straight year Australia's flagship golf tournaments have been cancelled because of coronavirus.

This year's edition of the men's tournament - which has been won by the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Peter Thomson and Greg Norman - was first scheduled for November 25-28 at The Australian Golf Club in Sydney, then postponed until early in 2022.

The Women's Australian Open was set for Kooyonga Golf Club in Adelaide in February, 2022.

OMG!!! How many people have ever gotten Covid while playing and/or watching golf, an outdoor sport where people are not confined to stadiums for long periods of time.
