PGA Just Cancelled A Huge Tournament At Trump's Resort. Where They Moved It To Will Infuriate Him
Donald Trump continues to pay the price for his racist and divisive rabble-rousing. The Professional Golf Association (PGA) has decided to not hold their PGA Tour event at Miami’s Trump Doral resort. Instead, they will be moving the prized golf tournament – which had run in Miami since 1962- off to Mexico City. The star-studded golf tournament had been held in the city west of Miami’s airport for 54 years, but it only took the New York real estate mogul and scam university pitchman four short years to destroy the relationship and lose the deal.
The orange-faced one is surely red in the face with embarrassment and rage as Mexicans publicly made a big loser out of the profane bigot who dreams of building border walls at Mexico’s expense. There is little doubt that the racist Republican’s presidential campaign has cost the vulgarian’s company the prestigious PGA Cadillac Championship tournament at Trump Doral Resort, home to the famed Blue Monster.
Mexican conglomerate Grupo Salinas has picked up sponsorship when no American corporation would, and the television production and financial service behemoth got the golf tournament location they wanted in return: Mexico City. As the Miami Herald reports, it’s highly unusual to be unable to replace a sponsor in America’s televised, professional sports leagues:
Losing a title sponsor, whether of a sporting venue or event these days, defines common. Being unable to replace one, especially for a popular golf tournament with international reach and a half-century of history, defines uncommon. Even in the economically stretched times of 2009-10, the PGA signed lucrative sponsor agreements.
Now, the tournament seems headed on the other side of a border on which Trump declares he wants to build a wall.
