When else can you see a putter this size AND a tractor at a PGA Tour event?
With the announced cancellation of the John Deere, we’re lamenting the loss of another great event.
The tournament was scheduled for July 9-12 at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois, and would have been the sixth event played in the Tour’s revamped schedule. The first four events, beginning May 21 at the Charles Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas, will not be allowing fans.
Here’s a look at some of our favorite memories at the John Deere through the past few years.
