Tour moving Doral tournament to Mexico City

Original story:

The PGA Tour's longstanding event in Miami could be on the move - and potentially headed across the border.

In addition to being the presumptive Republican nominee for president, Donald Trump is also the owner of Trump National Doral in South Florida. Appearing on Fox News' "Hannity" program Tuesday, Trump indicated that the Tour intends to move WGC-Cadillac Championship from his resort to an undetermined venue in Mexico City.

"I just heard that the PGA Tour is taking their tournament out of Miami and moving it to Mexico, as an example," Trump said. "They're moving it to Mexico City which, by the way, I hope they have kidnapping insurance. But they're moving it to Mexico City."

Golf Channel sources indicate that Mexico City remains one of the possible locations for the 2017 event. Golf Channel reached out to the Tour for comment on the possible relocation but did not receive an immediate response.
