There are a number of sports that still returned to the field. They include England's cricket, British horse racing, the great North run, rugby, and Golf PGA championship.
The Premier League and EFL games were postponed last weekend as the UK entered a time of national mourning following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. In a statement released by the Premier League last Friday morning, it read, ‘At a meeting this morning, Premier League clubs paid tribute to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
To honor her extraordinary life and contribution to the nation, and as a mark of respect, this weekend’s Premier League match round will be postponed, including Monday evening’s game."
The affected match on Monday was between Leeds vs Nottingham Forest, which made it an ideal opportunity to

‘This is aligned with the approach that the Premier League and the FA will take with their competitions this weekend."
