St. Andrews, Jul 15 (AP) Golf organizers fixed an oversight Wednesday by agreeing to move the pandemic-postponed Curtis Cup so that it doesn't conflict with the Solheim Cup.

The Curtis Cup was to be held this year at Conwy Golf Club in Wales until the COVID-19 pandemic led to a series of postponements.

It originally was pushed back to Sept. 3-5 in 2021, except that's the same week as the Solheim Cup at Inverness Club in Ohio.

The Curtis Cup is for amateurs from the U.S. against a team from Britain and Ireland. The Solheim Cup is for LPGA Tour players against Europe. However, the Junior Solheim Cup is also held that week. The would have forced amateur stars to decide whether to play the Junior Solheim Cup or the Curtis Cup.
