Report: PGA of America cancels Grand Slam event

The PGA of America has decided to permanently cancel the Grand Slam of Golf, according to a report from the Sports Business Journal.

The four-man, 36-hole event had been played annually since 1979 and typically brings together the four major champions from the previous calendar year. After eight years in Bermuda, the event was slated to shift to Trump National in Los Angeles last year but was abruptly pulled from the site following controversial remarks about immigrants from course owner and presidential candidate, Donald Trump, and ultimately canceled.

While that decision was billed as a one-year hiatus, PGA officials have reportedly decided to make the change permanent.
