John Deere Classic tournament director Clair Peterson confirmed Thursday this year's event, which was scheduled for July 9-12, has been canceled and removed from the 2020 PGA Tour schedule because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Ryan Lavner of Golf Channel provided the update. ESPN's Bob Harig first reported the event would be canceled because Illinois' restrictions on large gatherings will still be in place in July.
