00:00Trump Golf Course added back to the PGA Tour.

00:03The Cadillac Championship roars back to Trump National Doral,

00:07stirring history, politics, prestige, and unfinished business in South Florida.

00:12A decade after Cadillac pulled its sponsorship from the PGA Tour's World Golf Championship event at Trump National Doral,

00:19a move that ultimately pushed the event out of Miami and into Mexico,

00:23the brand is back, and so is the name the Cadillac Championship.

00:26In 2026, from April 27th to May 3rd, the Blue Monster will host a $20 million signature event.

00:35This is not just a nostalgic revival.

00:38It's a recalibration of golf's shifting alliances and power centers.

00:43From 1962 to 2016, Trump National Doral, now one of three Florida courses owned by Donald Trump,

00:50hosted the Doral Open and successors, with Adam Scott closing the WGC era and Tiger Woods' four memorable wins on the Blue Monster.

00:59The tour's divorce from Doral was steeped in politics and controversy.

01:04After the 2016 event, the tournament moved to Mexico City, prompting sharp rebukes from Trump,

01:10who decried the decision as political and short-sighted.

01:13In the years since, Doral became a key live golf venue, the Saudi-funded league that disrupted the sport's status quo.

01:21But now, with Doral absent from the live schedule in 2026, the tour is seizing the opportunity to replant its flag on Miami soil.

01:30Cadillac and Doral were always a strong pairing, PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolaf said.

01:36This return is more than symbolic. It's part of a new chapter.

01:41Still, not everything is as it was.

01:43Despite two private meetings hosted by Trump in 2025 to broker peace between the PGA Tour and Live, negotiations remain stalled.

01:52The infamous framework agreement announced in 2023 has yet to bear fruit.

01:57Even so, the return of the Cadillac Championship to Doral serves as a symbolic shift.

02:02The venue will not inherit its predecessor's record books or official legacy, but its history is undeniable.

02:10The echoes of Tiger's fist pumps, of Scott's final charge, of decades of world-class golf.

02:16They're all still there.

02:18And come 2026, the roar of the blue monster won't just be nostalgic.
