SINGAPORE - Sports facilities here are enhancing safety measures and hygiene protocols in preparation for reopening on Friday .

To maintain safe distancing, flight interval times have been increased, while a touch-free ball retrieval system will be used and bunker rakes and mini pin flags removed to reduce contact. Alternate bays will be used at the driving range. The 2018 Singapore Golf Industry Report noted there were 46,000 golfers that held membership to the 12 private country clubs here and 55 per cent of them were over the age of 55.

Yoga Movement co-founder and managing director Peter Thew is awaiting further guidelines from the authorities on areas such as limits to class sizes before announcing a reopening date.
