This week the PGA Tour heads to South Carolina for the inaugural 2021 Palmetto Championship at Congaree. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the tournament.
Palmetto Championship preview
Originally this week was slated for the RBC Canadian Open, but with that tournament postponed for a second-straight year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, a temporary spot opened up on the PGA Tour calendar. The event to fill its place is the 2021 Palmetto Championship at Congaree.
The course, Congaree Golf Club, is located in South Carolina, the same state that played host to last month’s thrilling PGA Championship won by Phil Mickelson. One of the main characters from the drama of PGA Sunday is in the field at the Palmetto: Brooks Koepka.
Koepka has been battling injuries for over a year now, and his knee seemed to be acting up at Kiawah Island. Despite that, the 2018 and 2019 PGA winner finished runner-up to Mickelson. Koepka hasn’t played since then, but he’s been featured in lots of banter amid an internet feud of sorts with Bryson DeChambeau.
Joining Koepka in the field is one of South Carolina’s favorite sons, and the top-ranked player in the world: Dustin Johnson.
