RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- The Champions Tour will play an event in Richmond next season as part of the 50-and-over circuit's first playoffs.

Sponsored by Dominion Resources, the Dominion Charity Classic will be played Nov. 4-6, 2016, on The Country Club of Virginia's James River Course. The tour said Thursday that the tournament will be the last event before the season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship.
