LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The PGA Tour's ISCO Championship is expected to be played at Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville starting next year, several sources confirmed to WDRB News.
Tournament officials said in a news release Thursday that a news conference is scheduled for Tuesday at the club, off Shelbyville Road in east Louisville. Kentucky Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman and Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg will join representatives from Louisville-based ISCO Industries, Norton Healthcare and the PGA Tour at the 11 a.m. news conference.
For the last six years, the tournament has been held at Champion Trace in Nicholasville, the only PGA Tour stop in Kentucky. Previously called the Barbasol Championship, ISCO took over the naming rights for the event before this year's event, which was held earlier this month. English golfer Harry Hall won, earning himself a spot in this week's Open Championship at Royal Troon, the year's last major championship.
The tournament is an "opposite-field" event, meaning its held during the same week as another, higher-profile event on the tour calendar. It's played the same week as the Genesis Scottish Open, which draws many of the world's top players preparing for the following week's Open Championship.
The past winners at Champions at Keene Trace include:
- 2018: Troy Merritt
- 2019: Jim Herman
- 2020: Canceled
- 2021: Seamus Power
- 2022: Trey Mullinax
- 2023: Vincent Norrman
- 2024: Harry Hall
