Ohio gets its own version of a golf doubleheader. The PGA Tour has alerted players it has reached an agreement for Workday to be the title sponsor of a new tournament at Muirfield Village.
That’s the course Jack Nicklaus built.
The tournament would be July 9-12 and would be followed by the Memorial. It was not clear if Nicklaus would play a role in the additional tournament.
The Workday event replaces the John Deere Classic in Illinois, which was canceled this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Deere returns to the schedule next year.
The Memorial goes back to a 120-man field.
