The '''Procore Championship''', previously the '''Fortinet Championship''' and the '''Safeway Open''', is a professional [[golf]] tournament, part of the [[PGA Tour]]. Originally sponsored by [[Fry's Electronics]], it was first staged in 2007 as the '''Fry's Electronics Open''' at [[Grayhawk Golf Club]]'s Raptor Course in [[Scottsdale, Arizona]]. It was renamed to the '''Frys.com Open''' in [[2008 PGA Tour|2008]] and moved to [[California]] in [[2010 PGA Tour|2010]], to [[CordeValle Golf Club]] in [[San Martin, California|San Martin]], southeast of [[San Jose, California|San Jose]]. In October 2014, part of the PGA Tour's [[2015 PGA Tour|2015]] season, it moved north to [[Napa, California|Napa]] and the [[Silverado Country Club]] {{nowrap|(North course).<ref>{{cite news |url=http://napavalleyregister.com/news/local/silverado-country-club-to-host-pga-tour-event/article_d35241a4-e43a-11e2-b0b0-001a4bcf887a.html |title=Silverado Country Club to host PGA Tour event |first=Marty |last=James |date=July 4, 2013 |newspaper=[[Napa Valley Register]] }}</ref>}}

Beginning with the October 2016 tournament, part of the PGA Tour's [[2017 PGA Tour|2017]] season, the primary sponsor was [[Safeway Inc.]],<ref>{{cite news|last=Steward|first=Carl|date=October 18, 2015|title=PGA Tour: Big shake-up at Frys.com Open|newspaper=San Jose Mercury News|url=http://www.mercurynews.com/sports/ci_28988288/pga-tour-big-shake-up-at-frys-com|access-date=October 19, 2015}}</ref> and that continued through 2020.

== History ==
Silverado's North Course hosted an annual event on the PGA Tour from [[1968 PGA Tour|1968]] through [[1980 PGA Tour|1980]], the first nine editions as the [[Michelob Championship at Kingsmill|Kaiser International Open Invitational]]. In [[1977 PGA Tour|1977]], that event was renamed the [[Michelob Championship at Kingsmill|Anheuser-Busch Golf Classic]] and in [[1981 PGA Tour|1981]] it moved east to [[Kingsmill Resort|Kingsmill]] in [[Williamsburg, Virginia]], where it was played through [[2002 PGA Tour|2002]].

The Frys.com Open began as a [[PGA Tour Fall Series]] event, from 2007 through 2012. Starting in October 2013, when the PGA Tour changed its "year" to begin in October, rather than January, the tournament became the opening event of the PGA Tour season, and [[FedEx Cup]] points were awarded to players.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.contracostatimes.com/golf/ci_21772904/frys-com-open-golf-notebook-attendance-down-but |title=Frys.com Open golf notebook: Attendance down, but tournament president Duke Butler optimistic about event's future |first=David |last=Pollak |date=October 14, 2012 |newspaper=Contra Costa Times |access-date=October 15, 2012 |archive-date=October 12, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131012101907/http://www.contracostatimes.com/golf/ci_21772904/frys-com-open-golf-notebook-attendance-down-but |url-status=dead }}</ref>

The inaugural event in 2007, at Grayhawk Golf Club's Raptor Course in Scottsdale, Arizona, was won by [[Mike Weir]] by one stroke over [[Mark Hensby]]. The 2008 event was won by [[Cameron Beckman]] on the second playoff hole, when [[Kevin Sutherland]] bogeyed it. In 2009, [[Troy Matteson]] set a PGA Tour 36-hole record of 122 with 61 in both the second and third rounds,<ref>{{cite web|last=Kelley|first=Brent|title=Lowest Stroke Total in Back-to-Back Rounds on the PGA Tour|url=http://golf.about.com/od/progolftours/qt/backtoback.htm|access-date=January 16, 2015|publisher=About.com|archive-date=April 7, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150407110207/http://golf.about.com/od/progolftours/qt/backtoback.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> and then won in a three-man playoff against [[Rickie Fowler]] and [[Jamie Lovemark]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=November 13, 2015|title=Troy Matteson wins Frys.com Open in playoff with Jamie Lovemark, Rickie Fowler|url=http://www.twincities.com/2009/10/25/troy-matteson-wins-frys-com-open-in-playoff-with-jamie-lovemark-rickie-fowler/|access-date=September 5, 2017|newspaper=Pioneer Press|agency=Associated Press}}</ref> At CordeValle in San Martin in 2012, [[John Mallinger]] shot a 62, matching the course record; it was his PGA Tour best round.<ref>{{cite web|date=October 12, 2012|title=John Mallinger ties course record with 62, leads Frys.com Open by four after 36 holes|url=http://www.pga.com/news/pga-tour/john-mallinger-ties-course-record-62-leads-fryscom-open-four-after-36-holes|access-date=July 28, 2016|publisher=PGA of America|agency=Associated Press|archive-date=August 22, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160822192214/http://www.pga.com/news/pga-tour/john-mallinger-ties-course-record-62-leads-fryscom-open-four-after-36-holes|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2013, tournament organizers had a long-term goal to stage the event at The Institute Golf Course in [[Morgan Hill, California|Morgan Hill]], a course owned by {{nowrap|John Fry,}} when facilities were completed there.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://napavalleyregister.com/sports/pga-tour-event-will-put-spotlight-on-silverado/article_9262c92e-ed05-11e2-b786-001a4bcf887a.html |title=PGA Tour event will put spotlight on Silverado |first=Marty |last=James |date=July 14, 2013 |newspaper=[[Napa Valley Register]]}}</ref> That was expected in 2016 or 2017,<ref>{{cite news |title=The story behind Silverado's return starts with Johnny Miller |url=http://blog.sfgate.com/ongolf/2014/10/07/the-story-behind-silverados-return-starts-with-johnny-miller/ |newspaper=San Francisco Chronicle |access-date=October 19, 2015 |date=October 7, 2014 |first=Ron |last=Kroichick |archive-date=September 10, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150910214340/http://blog.sfgate.com/ongolf/2014/10/07/the-story-behind-silverados-return-starts-with-johnny-miller/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> but did not happen because of the change of sponsorship to Safeway in 2016.

In July 2024, it was announced that [[Procore]] would become the title sponsor for the 2024 event.<ref>{{cite magazine |url=https://www.golfdigest.com/story/pga-tour-napa-fedex-fall-procore-technologies |title=PGA Tour quickly secures new title sponsor for Napa fall event |magazine=Golf Digest |first=Tod |last=Leonard |date=31 July 2024 |access-date=1 August 2024}}</ref>
