The Memorial Tournament is activating its waiting list for tickets and likely will have the biggest crowd since the return of golf from the COVID-19 pandemic nearly a year ago.
The tournament Jack Nicklaus founded said Friday it will allow people on its waiting list the chance to buy weekly badges for the June 3-6 tournament at Muirfield Village.
The number of ticket sales was not disclosed.
A tournament spokesman says capacity is expected to be more than 50%, without being a complete sellout. The Memorial is one of the premier PGA Tour events that typically attracts some of the largest galleries except for majors.
In a statement, the tournament said it established a waiting list of “our most loyal patrons." Based on CDC recommendations and in cooperation with the PGA Tour and government leaders, they now can buy weekly tickets.
