On Monday, Bob
Harig wrote on ESPN.com that PODS Inc. was thinking about opting out of it's deal to host the PODS Championship in Tampa beyond the 2008 season. On Wednesday, the deal was official. Steve Sands announced on Wednesday night's Golf Central that PODS has opted out of it's six-year
contract. The tournament will still be played this year from March 6-9 at the Innisbrook Golf Resort, but another host will have to be found. Tournament director Gerald Goodman told Harig earlier in the week, "...We think that Tampa is a strong market and we are hopeful that we can find somebody else."
