Tiger Woods returns to introduce golf’s two-tier PGA Tour shake-up from 2028
New elite series to include promotion and relegation
23-24 events spread across February to August
The PGA Tour has announced sweeping changes to its competitive structure, approving a two-tier system with promotion and relegation to take effect in 2028.
The elite-tier PGA Tour Championship Series will run from February to August and feature 23-24 events with $20m (£15m) purses, while the $4m (£3m) events on the Challenger Series will provide a path for players to earn their way to the top level.
