PGA Prepares to Move Tournament out of Georgia

The PGA can do whatever they want with the Masters.

No, they can't. The Masters is an invitational only Tournament owned by the Augusta Golf Course. They only thing they can do is not go.


You're being purposefully obtuse by acting like Golf cannot be played anywhere but Augusta - and acting like "The Masters" is a name that cannot be worked-around.

It's called suffering the Consequences of your actions. Georgia passed massive Voter Suppression Legislation. Turns out a lot of people including Voting Republican do not like Vote Suppression.

Georgia fucked up. They pay the price for that fuck up
 
Civil Rights Group Calls to Relocate Masters after GA Voting Bill

The National Black Justice Coalition (NBJC) is calling for the PGA Tour and The Masters to move next month's major championship out of Georgia in response to the recent passing of a controversial voting law.

NBJC executive director David J. Johns told Golfweek that the bill, SB 202 will "return Black and poor and already disenfranchised voters in Georgia to second class citizens" and said that he hopes action can be taken to relocate The Masters, which begins April 8 in Augusta.

“The PGA Tour and Masters Tournament have both made commitments to help diversify golf and address racial inequities in this country—and we expect them to not only speak out against Georgia’s new racist voter suppression law—but to also take action," Johns said in a statement.

"Professional golf should not reward Georgia’s attacks on democracy and voting rights with the millions of dollars in revenue that the tournament generates and the prestige it brings to the State. We all must act to protect our democracy and the right to vote.”


Georgia needs to tread carefully it would seem...uh oh

...They can move to another course like Myrtle Beach and call it "The Masters by PGA" and nobody would care at all about Augusta because all the golfers would show up there and play.

If PGA thinks they can have the Masters Tournament without the Augusta National Golf Course then they are out of touch with reality

Once again you are LYING your ass off!

Heck even the Washington Post says it is a lie when they chastised Biden over it.

It is Legal to vote in Georgia as usual.

They can't because Augusta National owns all the trademarks.
 
‘…SB 202 will "return Black and poor and already disenfranchised voters in Georgia to second class citizens"’ ibid

True.
Listen if it is so difficult for blacks to show an id then maybe they are not bright enough to vote in the 1st place. Blacks want everything done for them and they never take their own imitative

That too

but there is only one golf course that Bobby Jones created

and the Masters is only the Masters when its played there
Trying to separate the Masters from the PGA and the grand slam would be a more idiotic move than Tony George kicking CART out of the Indy 500.
 
Augusta, GA is host to the PGA soon and it is the largest crowd-drawer to Augusta in the country. Their economy is based off it.

Please show us the numbers to back your claim their economy is based off of it.

It's a one week deal.

Who cares ?

I wonder what state will kiss the PGA's rear end to get the tournament.

Arizona told Paul Tagliabu to shove it when he wanted to pull the Super Bowl from AZ over the MLK holiday.

They pulled it.....and AZ just filled it's hotels with other conventions....never missed a beat.

I bet at least they demand a name change for the Masters

What's Augusta National's track record of caving?
 
MLB and pga will hand a huge loss in fans and revenues

We the real Americans must boycott

The Masters tournament will never leave Ausgusta. The tournament was started by Bobby Jones after he built the course in the 1930s. The PGA can make statements about racial equality and fund raise which they do plenty of but they will not move that tournament. It’s not even in the PGAs power to move it. If you heard different then it’s fake news.

That's because "The Masters" is and always has been in Augusta. I doubt anyone else can legally use the name.
