Today, the PGA Tour Championship series announced that the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis will tragically be losing its PGA status beginning 2028.
The following is the statement released by the PGA Tour:
“FedEx has been a wonderful partner since 1986, with our relationship evolving and innovating over the years. As we prepare for the FedEx St. Jude Championship next week and again in 2027, we remain in close conversation about the future of our partnership. We are grateful to FedEx for all it contributes to the sport and the positive impact it makes in the community, including in Memphis with St. Jude. As we implement a new competitive model and map out our schedule for 2028 and beyond, we believe Memphis is well-positioned to remain part of the PGA TOUR. TPC Southwind is a premier venue in our TPC Network and remains an important asset to the TOUR. We look forward to sharing more as plans take shape.”
Fortunately, PGA Tour officials said they will remain in close contact with FedEx for future opportunities.
