More Big Changes Coming to the PGA TOUR Schedule?
Description
Is the PGA Tour about to overhaul its entire schedule — and are we ready for what that means for the future of pro golf?
In this episode of the golf podcast we break down the biggest indication yet that major PGA Tour schedule changes may be coming as early as 2027 — including the possibility of shifting the entire season to start after the Super Bowl.
That move could eliminate the Hawaii swing, impact events like Torrey Pines, and even signal the end of signature (elevated) events altogether. We dive into the revealing comments from Harris English at the RSM Classic, discuss how new PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp’s NFL background may be shaping this direction, and explore what these changes mean for players, sponsors, and the future of professional golf.
We also look at how escalating prize purses may be pushing longtime sponsors away, why the Tour’s current model may be unsustainable, and how a condensed season could open up space for TGL, LIV Golf’s 72-hole pivot, and even potential crossover events fans have been begging for.
If you’re curious where the PGA Tour, LIV Golf, and the wider golf ecosystem may be headed — and what it means for fans craving more of the best players competing together — this episode dives deep into the shifting landscape and the “writing on the wall” for pro golf’s next era.
