Memphis reacts to PGA Tour's exit from Championship Series in 2028

The PGA Tour has announced it will stop holding its Championship Series tournament in Memphis after 2028.

Local business leaders, including Memphis Tourism President Kevin Kane, expressed concerns about the impact of this decision but maintained optimism for the future. The loss of this tournament could affect local business dynamics, though there is potential for Memphis to host events in the PGA's Challenger Series. The Greater Memphis Chamber acknowledged the historical significance of the event, highlighting the contributions to local tourism and charitable work in association with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and FedEx.
