Última atualização em 15 de março de 2022 20h55 por Erwin Noguera

O PGA Tour is taking a trip for the Campeonato Valspar 2022 to take place.

This professional golf tournament on the PGA Tour is played annually on the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club in Palm Harbor, northwest of Tampa, Florida.

This year the event takes place from Thursday, March 17th to Sunday 20th.

Event Overview – Valspar Championship – 2022 – PGA Golf Tour

The tournament was founded in 2000 as the Tampa Bay Classic. Originally it was an alternate event in autumn and late summer. 

It was scheduled for the same week as the WGC-American Express Championship in 2001 in mid-September. However, the September 11 attacks (on Tuesday) forced the cancellations of both tournaments.

From 2003 to 2006, the Tampa Bay event had a slot in the schedule to itself in late October (and early November in 2003) as the last full-field event before the Tour Championship. 

The Chrysler Corporation was the title sponsor.

Since 2007, the Tampa Bay event has been in March, as the Players Championship moved six weeks later, to mid-May. 

For a time, the tournament was without a title sponsor, leading to speculation on its fate beyond 2007. 

Then, on January 24, 2007, tournament officials and the PGA Tour announced a six-year sponsorship agreement with PODS of Clearwater, Florida.

However, the company chose to exercise an option to withdraw as title sponsor after the 2008 event. Later on tournament officials searched to find a replacement.

On June 4, 2008, Transitions Optical, Inc., the photochromic lens manufacturer headquartered locally in Largo, was the new title sponsor.

Transitions left the event after the 2012 season. 

Just two weeks before the 2013 tournament, EverBank agreed to be the presenting sponsor for the tournament.

In September 2013, Valspar Corporation signed a four-year deal to become the title sponsor of the event, now named the Campeonato Valspar.

On March 9, 2016, the PGA Tour, Valspar Corporation, and Copperhead Charities – the Valspar Championship host organization – announced a three-year title sponsorship extension, thus carrying Valspar’s commitment to the tournament through 2020 and later on.
