The Greenbrier Classic made its debut in
2010 and replaced the long-standing
Buick Open in
Grand Blanc, Michigan, on the tour schedule. In the final round of the inaugural year,
Stuart Appleby shot a 59 (the fifth in PGA Tour history) to win by one stroke. It was his first win on tour in four years. Played in late July for its first two editions, The Greenbrier Classic moved to early July in 2012. Prior to the 2012 event, the original six-year contract with the PGA Tour was extended another six years, through 2021. The 2012 event was the first time
Tiger Woods and
Phil Mickelson both missed the cut in the same tournament. Due to the effects of
severe flooding in June 2016, that year's tournament was cancelled. As part of major changes to the PGA Tour schedule, the event moved to September in 2019. Since the season began in the fall, the event skipped the
2018–19 season and was the first event of the
2019–20 season. It was announced in April 2020 that, due in part to decreased attendance in its September date making the tournament less appealing to sponsors, the event would not return and the remainder of the contract with the tour had been cancelled by mutual agreement. ==Winners==
