Which PGA Tour event is played in Silvis, Illinois?

The PGA Tour event played in Silvis, Illinois, is the John Deere Classic. It is held at TPC Deere Run in the Quad Cities region, near the Mississippi River and John Deere’s corporate heartland.

The tournament began in 1971 as the Quad Cities Open and became an official PGA Tour event the following year. Its present title reflects John Deere’s long-running sponsorship, while its usual July date places it shortly before The Open Championship.

TPC Deere Run has hosted the tournament since 2000. Designed by D. A. Weibring with help from PGA Tour design staff, the course follows rolling terrain, wooded ravines, and the Rock River corridor. It is a par-71 layout and is known for giving players opportunities to make birdies while still punishing loose shots.

Silvis is sometimes confused with nearby Quad Cities communities such as Moline, East Moline, and Davenport. The tournament’s official venue, however, is TPC Deere Run in Silvis, making the John Deere Classic the canonical answer.
