Doral Mayor Hails PGA Tour's Possible Return to Trump National
Doral Mayor Christi Fraga expressed enthusiasm Tuesday regarding the PGA Tour's potential return to Trump National Doral in 2026, labeling it an "extraordinary moment" for both the city and the sport of golf.
"The return of the PGA Tour to Doral would be an extraordinary moment, bringing the tournament back to where it truly belongs," Fraga stated, highlighting the significance of this development.
After a nearly decade-long absence, Trump National Doral Golf Club, which hosted PGA Tour events for over 50 years until its removal from the schedule in 2016, is poised to rejoin the tour's calendar.
Fraga underscored the tournament's historical importance to Doral's identity and growth. "Golf has always been at the heart of our city's story, and for decades, the tour played a key role in putting Doral on the map," she noted.
She further remarked, "The tour's presence in Doral fostered a strategic and mutually beneficial relationship for years, and I am truly excited about the possibility of seeing that partnership restored."
This potential revival not only signifies a return to form for the golf club but also represents a broader opportunity for economic and cultural revitalization within Doral.
As discussions continue, local stakeholders remain optimistic about the implications of this development for the community and its future in professional golf.
