Atlanta Classic (AT&T Classic) on the PGA Tour

The AT&T Classic is a former golf tournament on the PGA Tour that was the tour's Atlanta event for several decades. In fact, "Atlanta" appeared in the tournament name for much of the event's history. The tournament ended when its last title sponsor, AT&T, withdrew and no appropriate replacement could be found.

First played: A tournamend called "Atlanta Open" was first played in 1934, but disappeared after 1947 and a PGA Tour Atlanta stop didn't reappear until 1967, when the Atlanta Classic arrived. We only list the winners from 1967 forward below.

Last played: 2008

Also known as: BellSouth Classic, BellSouth Atlanta Golf Classic, Georgia-Pacific Atlanta Golf Classic, Atlanta Classic
