    The PGA TOUR has announced the four Featured Groups for the opening rounds of the 2020 Bermuda Championship in Southampton, Bermuda. For the first time in tournament history, the event will offer full FedExCup points (500) due to the cancellation of the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
