I was talking about IMG wgho charge hosting fees.

I doubt GRC was ever big enough to do the same, but IMG did it from the start to make sure they would remove the existing tracks from the calendar that could not make enough money, and went to pointless places like Turkey, Argentina and a few others instead as they paid regardless. Then bailed utterly when the events made no money.

Good business is conning a tourism department out of a hosting fee, not looking after the existing venues and trying to et them or help them improve while dabbling in increasing tour footprint.
