Austin's annual WGC golf tournament will not return to the city after this year; the tournament has been played at Austin Country Club for its last seven editions.
Jordan Uppleger, the tournament’s executive director, made the announcement Monday morning.
"It was determined that a 64 player event didn’t fit the confines of the schedule," Uppleger said. "There’s really not another reason than that. I think it’s a special week for our players. I’m sure they’re going to miss a lot of the components to that. It may not fit in schedules, but we’re definitely going to be looking back at Austin, Texas and figuring out a way to come back.
The tournament has been played at the Austin Country Club seven times in the last eight years. The 2020 event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All the news you need to know, every day
