Congressional Action: Tiger's DC Event Ends Contract With Club

You never want to see a tournament go--especially one that's provided some wonderful memories--but the PGA Tour calendar will need to lose a few events to make a Labor Day conclusion work. The sponsor-less D.C. area stop seems to be near an end after eleven playings that also included at stop in Philadelphia.

JP Finlay was first to report the letter to Congressional members notifying them to expect no tournament in 2018 or 2020.

Rex Hoggard reports some of the letter language for GolfChannel.com:

“The Tiger Woods Foundation currently has no title sponsor for their PGA Tour golf tournament. Because of that circumstance, the PGA Tour has exercised its right to terminate our facilities agreement with them for 2018 and 2020, while they seek a title sponsor for The National,” the letter from club president Richard Sullivan Jr. read.
