Golf's HSBC Women's World Championship, scheduled to take place in Singapore at the end of this month, has been cancelled along with next week's Thailand Open, the US LPGA Tour announced Monday.

"Due to the continued health concerns and recent advisories in some Asian countries that large-scale events should be cancelled or postponed as a result of the coronavirus, the LPGA and its partners have made the decision to cancel the 2020 Honda LPGA Thailand and the 2020 HSBC Women's World Championship," an LPGA Tour said.
