New name. Different venue. Repeat champion?
The 2025 Truist Championship, previously known as the Wells Fargo Championship, is being played at Philadelphia Cricket Club’s Wissahickon Course in Pennsylvania this week. Normally staged at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, the Truist was moved for one year because Quail Hollow next week hosts the PGA Championship.
