After a six-decade-long hiatus, the PGA Tour is finally coming back to Utah.
The 9th hole at Black Desert Resort in Ivins. The PGA Tour is returning to Utah on the course designed by Tom Weiskopf.• After a six-decade hiatus, the PGA Tour is finally returning to Utah and will bring many of the world’s top golfers and a global television audience with it.
The new championship will be the first PGA Tour event in Utah since Tommy Jacobs beat Don January by a single stroke to win the 1963 Utah Open Invitational at the Salt Lake Country Club.The Black Desert Championship will be part of the PGA Tour’s 2024 FedExCup Fall, which starts in September of that year.
Both events will be played on the resort’s par-72 golf course, which opened in May and was the last of 73 courses designed by late golfing great Tom Weiskopf in collaboration with architect Phil Smith. The course, with its verdant greens tucked between black lava rock and framed by redrock cliffs, prompted Smith to liken the resort to Hawaii and Arizona all rolled into one.Others are also giving the resort kudos.
“This is great news,” he said. “Utah is definitely producing a lot of good players and has a lot of great golf courses. A lot of the pros vacation in Utah, and they obviously like what they see.”
