PGA Tour Expected To Return To Miami At The Iconic Blue Monster Course At Trump National Doral In 2026

The PGA Tour is expected to return to Miami’s iconic Blue Monster Course in 2026, with President Donal Trump’s Trump National Doral once again playing host to professional golf’s biggest stage. This highly anticipated move marks a significant chapter in the resort’s storied history and a major win for South Florida’s sports and tourism economy. Official confirmation is still pending but signs are pointing to the tournament being a fixture on the PGA Tour’s schedule as a signature event. Additionally, LIV Golf’s Miami stop has been removed from their 2026 schedule and the R&A’s new leadership under Martin Darbon announced this morning that they have had talks with Eric Trump about returning The Open Championship to the Trump-owned Trump Turnberry in Scotland after the previous chief executive had vowed to not host an event at a Trump Organization owned property despite Trump Organization owning many of the world’s most iconic and historical golf courses.

Originally opened in 1962, Trump National Doral has long been synonymous with world-class golf. The resort gained international prestige by hosting the PGA Tour’s Doral Open for over 50 years, followed by the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship until 2016. In 2012 the property was acquired by President Donal Trump’s Trump Organization and underwent a $250 million renovation, updating its four golf courses, including the legendary Blue Monster, and upgrading the 800-acre resort with luxury accommodations, enhanced amenities, and expansive event space. Trump National Doral has also hosted the LIV Golf’s Miami event for the past several seasons, maintaining its place as a world-class global golf destination.

The PGA Tour’s return is expected to bring a substantial economic boost to Miami-Dade County. PGA Tour events generate tens to hundreds of millions of dollars in economic impact for host cities as they attract tens of thousands of visitors, filling hotel rooms, restaurants, and local businesses. Additionally, national TV coverage and international exposure reinforces Miami’s position as a premier sports and lifestyle destination. A 2026 PGA Tour event in Miami would generate new opportunities for local vendors, sponsors, and hospitality operators to drive business.

In addition to golf, Trump National Doral has become an anchor in the Doral real estate market, contributing to the city’s emergence as a luxury residential and commercial hub. Its presence has helped elevate nearby property values and spurred ongoing development, from gated communities to retail and office expansions. As the PGA Tour prepares to return to the fairways of Trump National Doral, the event represents more than a sporting revival—it signals the reemergence of a South Florida landmark in the international spotlight.

Inside Canarias At Downtown Doral's Exquisite Luxury Homes With Jim Carr of CC Homes

There are few projects under construction in the United States where an entire live, work, play city complete with community programming, a variety of residential options, schools and diverse retail are coming to life. One such project is coming to Downtown Doral. The $1 billion, 250-acre master-planned community will feature single-family homes, townhomes, apartments, condos, nearly one million square-feet of office space and 180,000 square-feet of retail when complete, along with a City Hall and charter school. PROFILEmiami had the exclusive opportunity to tour the community with veteran developer Jim Carr, a partner at CC Homes who is one of the developers building Downtown Doral’s first luxury single-family offering, Canarias at Downtown Doral. Driving around with Carr, the recent popularity of Downtown Doral was clearly visible with students flooding the sidewalks on their way home from school and families filling the retail and recreational areas.

“What my partner Armando Codina has done creating Downtown Doral is spectacular. He curated an excellent mix of retail, offices, green spaces… and a variety of residential offerings were always part of the vision. CC Homes completed 52 luxury townhomes in 2016, and we saw how hot the area had become. There was a need for family friendly residences in a walkable urban neighborhood. Downtown Doral’s charter school also emerged as extremely desirable. When the adjacent White Course property became available, so did the opportunity to expand Downtown Doral, so we bought it to provide that single-family home component,” explains Carr, who has been developing in South Florida since 1976.

Canarias at Downtown Doral will be the community’s very first offering of single-family home residences with 423 single-family estate homes, as well as 52 townhomes in a mosaic of seven residential collections. Homes range in size from three to six bedroom floorplans and single-family homes are priced from $590,000 to $1.5 million, with townhomes starting at $630,000. The streetscapes between the homes will be lushly landscaped and add to a feel of tranquility and community, promoting a friendly, family community.

“Canarias is the only place in Miami where you can get an urban single-family home. We’ve designed these homes so that they offer plenty of space for growing families and so that you can expand beyond your yard, without getting in your car,” Carr continued.

CC Homes recently launched a selection of model homes which PROFILEmiami was able to tour including the Bali, Fiji and Maui. Upon entering, the size of the homes becomes evident where buyers will find well thought-out layouts that maximize living space while also allowing privacy for a large family to live together without feeling on-top of each-other. Jim Carr explained the thought that goes into the design including high-ceilings, 4’+ wide staircases, 8’+ interior doors, garages, and outdoor space which elevate the home’s level of luxury and livability. Carr also explained that as developers they do not cut corners, delivering homes with Italkraft cabinetry along with Wolf and Subzero appliances. Outdoors many of the homes come with summer kitchens as well as stunningly landscaped pools and garden areas.

Other major perks he mentioned are that buyers receive preferred access to Downtown Doral’s A+ rated charter school, access to the Residences Clubhouse complete with pool, tiki hut, cabanas, and fitness center; as well as a complimentary social membership to Trump National Doral Miami, home to the Blue Monster golf course, with a luxurious spa and three restaurants.
