Florida’s PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens is the next destination for the PGA Tour at the 2025 Cognizant Classic. Defending champion Austin Eckroat was on fire in 2024, winning by three strokes at 17-under-par.

The Cognizant Classic kicks off the annual Florida swing, which is characterized by swirling winds, copious water hazards and firm, Bermuda greens. For many years, the Cognizant Classic played as one of the most challenging golf courses on the PGA Tour,

After a fantastic West Coast swing that produced wins by stars like Rory McIlroy and Ludvig Åberg, followed by a pit stop in Mexico, the PGA Tour heads to PGA National to begin its Florida swing and play the Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches. The event was previously called the “Honda Classic” prior to last season.
