PGA Championship leaving Trump National

KAPALUA, Hawaii — The PGA of America cut ties to President Donald Trump when it voted Sunday to take the 2022 PGA Championship away from his New Jersey golf course next year.

The vote comes four days after the Trump-fueled riot at the nation’s Capitol as Congress was certifying the election victory of President-elect Joe Biden. This is the second time in just over five years the PGA of America removed one of its events from a Trump course.

PGA President Jim Richerson says the board voted to exercise its right to “terminate the agreement” with Trump National in Bedminster, New Jersey.
