Fujisankei Classic 2020

Hiroshi Iwata "So much for getting used to new format"

Japan Tour has permitted players to self-caddie due to the new protocols under CODIV-19 situations. This week 27 players will be self-caddying and one of them is Hiroshi Iwata.

Hiroshi did not expect to suffer so much with is electrical assisted cart, which did not assist him so easily. He had to play the roll of both the player and caddie and took him much time than expected. He was always on delay as he played among the player with his caddie.

"Could you please wait until I start walking too?"
He had to ask his fellow players to wait for him once in a while.

New format is giving new tasks and may be some headaches.
