Non-contact sporting facilities, including golf clubs and tennis courts are allowed to reopen. The all-clear gives thousands of enthusiasts the opportunity to exercise outdoors. It is not clear yet whether and when golf shops and sports stores can recommence selling equipment directly to customers.
