In a statement, the PGA president said hosting the tournament at the president's course would be "detrimental" to its brand.

SHOW TRANSCRIPT

The Professional Golf Association of America is moving a major event from a Trump golf property.

This is the second time in less than six years a PGA event has been removed from a Trump course. The Trump Organization said it was disappointed with the decision.
