PGA Tour event at Trump Doral gets huge boost with new spot on restructured 2027 schedule

Latest & Breaking News on Fox News

The first half of the 2027 PGA Tour schedule has been announced, and as the Florida Swing is being revamped, the Tour’s stop at Trump National Doral appears to be the biggest winner of the new-look schedule.

The PGA Tour returned to the Blue Monster at Trump National in 2026 with the Cadillac Championship, a new event on the calendar, and the first Tour event held at the Trump-owned property since 2016.

DUSTIN JOHNSON GIVES HILARIOUS THREE-WORD ANSWER WHEN ASKED TO SHARE THOUGHTS OF LIV GOLF LOSING ITS FUNDING

This year’s Cadillac Championship was held at the end of April and was the first of two consecutive signature events leading into the PGA Championship. With it falling two weeks before the year’s second major championship, many high-profile players, including Rory McIlroy, Matthew Fitzpatrick and Ludvig Aberg, skipped the event.

Passing on the Cadillac Championship to avoid playing three straight weeks and instead teeing it up at the Truist Championship the following week in the lead-in to the PGA Championship is a strategy no one can criticize.

While the 2026 Cadillac Championship fell victim to an overcrowded part of the calendar, its spot in 2027 should result in far more interest from players and fans both on-site and watching from home.

As first reported by Sports Business Journal, next year’s Cadillac Championship will take place the first week of March and will be the lead-in event for The Players at TPC Sawgrass.

The Arnold Palmer Invitational, another signature event, had been held the week before The Players in recent years, but will now be held the week after The Players beginning in 2027.

While the Cadillac Championship is the biggest winner on the 2027 slate, the Arnold Palmer will likely be the biggest loser.

Many players who tee it up at Doral and TPC Sawgrass will likely opt to pass on playing in the Arnold Palmer after back-to-back challenging and demanding weeks, especially with the Masters fast approaching at that point on the calendar.
