The initial impetus for the ICFME was oriented towards the testing and calibration of a newly developed physical model for predicting the spread rate and flame front intensity of crown fires. However, the ICFME has also provided the opportunity to examine other aspects or implications of crown fire behavior, without comprising this primary objective, including linkages to firefighter safety/personal protective equipment (PPE) and wildland-urban interface or intermix issues as well as certain ecological and environmental impacts or effects, including concerns about atmospheric chemistry from biomass burning.

    USGA Announces Postponement of 75th U.S. Women’s Open Championship Milestone championship will remain at Champions Golf Club in Houston, Texas, and will be played Dec. 10-13 on two courses LIBERTY CORNER, N.J. (April 3, 2020) – The USGA today announced that due to the evolving dynamics of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the 75th U.S. Women’s Open, originally scheduled for June 4-7 at Champions Golf Club in Houston, TeXas, has been postponed to Dec. 10-13. “The USGA remains committed to hosting the U.S. Women’s Open in 2020,” said USGA CEO Mike Davis. “We are grateful to the LPGA and our broadcast partner FOX for their terrific collaboration in finding a new date for the championship. Our priority remains ensuring the safety of all involved with the U.S. Women’s Open, while still providing the world’s best players the opportunity to compete this year.” To account for reduced daylight given the move to December, the Jackrabbit Course at Champions Golf Club will be used in conjunction with the Cypress Creek Course, which was originally slated to host all four rounds of championship play. The Jackrabbit will co-host Rounds 1 and 2. U.S. Women’s Open qualifying, which is run in conjunction with Allied Golf Associations and international federations, is eXpected to be held on rescheduled dates and potentially some new locations. The USGA is also reviewing how the postponement will affect eXemption categories, and definitive changes will be communicated when they are finalized. “We are incredibly thankful to Champions Golf Club for its fleXibility and support during this uncertain time,” said Davis.
