Here’s the latest on PGA Tour’s return to Doral:
-
The PGA Tour is planning to bring a new event back to Trump National Doral in Miami for the 2026 season, with reports pointing to a late-April/early-May slot (around April 27–May 3, 2026) and the event potentially branded as a Signature Event. This would mark the Blue Monster course’s first PGA Tour appearance since 2016.[1][3][4]
-
Multiple outlets have echoed the plan, naming a Miami-area event at Doral during the 2026 calendar and suggesting sponsorship discussions are ongoing, with Cadillac or another partner frequently mentioned in coverage. The return is framed as a significant shift in the Tour schedule, adding another marquee stop in the early part of the season.[4][5][1]
-
Local officials have publicly welcomed the news, calling the potential return an “extraordinary moment” for Doral and professional golf, while analysts and fans discuss the impact on the overall schedule, including how Signature Events would be spaced relative to other tournaments.[6][8]
-
For context, coverage from mid-2025 highlighted confirmation that the Tour was actively negotiating a return to Doral, with announcements anticipated in the 2025–2026 cycle and planning outlining a prominent place in the spring swing.[9][1]
Illustration: Imagine the 2000s-era Cadillac Championship era at the Blue Monster being revived as a high-profile spring showcase, reintroducing one of golf’s most storied courses to a new generation of players and fans.[1]
