The PGA Tour is heading back to New Jersey.

On Tuesday the Tour, alongside the Western Golf Association and BMW, announced that the BMW Championship would be played at the famed Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City, New Jersey, in August of 2027. Official dates are still to be determined.

Liberty National has previously hosted the Northern Trust in 2009, 2013, 2019 and 2021, as well as the Presidents Cup in 2017 and the 2023 Mizuho Americas Open, the club’s first LPGA event.

“It’s a tremendous honor for Liberty National Golf Club to host the 2027 BMW Championship and FedEx Cup Playoffs,” said Paul Fireman, former CEO of Reebok and co-founder of Liberty National Golf Club. “Welcoming the world’s top players and passionate fans to Liberty National with the iconic New York City skyline as the backdrop promises to be an incredible event. We’ve been fortunate to host a range of high-profile events on a consistent basis, and we’re thrilled to be adding the BMW Championship and future WGA competitions to our stellar lineup of tournaments.”

The 2023 BMW Championship is being held this week at Olympia Fields Country Club in Olympia Fields, Illinois. Next season the tournament will be hosted at Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado, before it returns to Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland, in 2025, and Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis in 2026.
