Tiger Woods’ event is on the 2018 PGA Tour schedule. Now it just needs a course and a sponsor.

The good news for Tiger Woods: he won’t be triple-dunking wedge shots at Congressional Country Club any time soon.

The bad news: his annual Washington, D.C., tournament, which was once a must-play event on the PGA Tour, may have no future.

Yes, the 2017-2018 tour schedule announced Tuesday includes a placeholder for something called “The National,” to be played somewhere in “Maryland.” But with possibly no Tiger Woods, no Congo, no title sponsor, or even a firm format for the event, the buzz that surrounded the contest and lured golf’s top players to Woods tourney has given way to crickets.

That’s because the tilt hosted by Woods, whom veteran golf writer John Feinstein recently called “damaged goods,” has gone the way of Woods’ chances to overtake Jack Nicklaus’ all-time major championship record. The end was near when the 2017 Quicken Loans National failed to attract as many big names, the sponsor declined to extend its expired contract, and no other company came forward to ink a new deal.

“I don’t think corporations are lining up to make a deal with Tiger Woods right now. He’s damaged goods,” Feinstein said Monday on SiriusXM PGATour Radio. “I mean, literally and metaphorically, he’s damaged goods.”

Along those lines, Woods, who was recovering from his fourth back surgery, did not even attend this year’s competition (*extra credit if you can name the winner of the tournament; answer below), which took place at nearby TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm.

With all that, Woods’ former event that remains sponsor-less, was a natural for the scrap heap — or at least an overhaul.

“We’re in a position where we’ve got to put forward the schedule and that’s why we’ve put the National on the brand,” tour commissioner Jay Monahan told reporters from East Lake on Tuesday. “We need to conclude those discussions with Quicken, but you also need to maintain your flexibility because whether or not Quicken steps up, we need to have all of our options in the event that a sponsor is looking at a different — or we’re going to take the tournament in a different direction … We’re not concluded in those discussions and if you have to make a commitment now, you can’t make it without a sponsor, which is why we at this point in time will not be at Congressional next year and have opted out of that agreement.”

The event, which is on the calendar for July, could become an exhibition that would involve Woods if he were healthy, Feinstein noted.

In any case, the upcoming slate includes two additional tournaments, bringing the total to 49, and will kick off on Oct. 5 — 11 days after this week’s Tour Championship finishes up the 2017 campaign. Gotta love that offseason.
