Invitational tournaments have smaller fields (between 120 and 132 players), and have more freedom than full-field open tournaments in determining which players are eligible to participate in their event, as invitational tournaments have slightly different criteria for player eligibility in the PGA Tour Priority Ranking System. However, the 2020 event was staged with 144 players to help make up for the loss of several tournaments canceled earlier in the year. The other four tournaments with invitational status are the Genesis Open, Arnold Palmer Invitational, the RBC Heritage, and the Memorial Tournament.

The 2018 tournament, renamed the Fort Worth Invitational, was held through the support of four local corporate supporters that had stepped-in to provide financial support after Dean & DeLuca suddenly pulled-out of a six-year sponsorship agreement. Even the unsponsored 2018 event used the name Fort Worth Invitational, as opposed to 'Colonial National Invitation' which was used the last time the event was without a sponsor back in 1995. The event name had 'Colonial' in its title through 2015, when the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial was renamed the Dean & DeLuca Invitational.

In the interests of maximum health and safety, the event had no spectators, a PGA Tour first.
