Could Covid-19 lead to golf courses being turned into parkland...?

Covid turned a Melbourne golf course into a public park and now no one wants to leave. There’s a push to turn the course into a public park permanently.

In Sydney for example - there are 91 golf courses and they take up 38 kilometres of open space - space that can only be accessed by members or paying guests.

In this Briefing... how Covid has ignited the debate about turning golf courses into parks. This issue was alive before the pandemic. The population of our cities has grown massively since many of our golf courses were zoned... and number of people playing golf has been declining.

In today's headlines:

  • Cricket Australia stands firm on plans to scrap Australia Day

  • Joe Biden overturns Trump policies on his first day in the White House

  • Treasurer rejects hospitality appeal for JobKeeper extension
