PGA Tour Plans Major City Comebacks
14 Feb
Summary
- PGA Tour aims to return events to major US cities.
- A three-step plan focuses on large markets and summer dominance.
- Schedule changes could be announced soon by new CEO.

The PGA Tour is set to overhaul its schedule, with a key objective of reintroducing tournaments into major U.S. metropolitan areas that have lost their events over the years. This strategic shift is part of a three-phase plan to create a more streamlined and impactful tour product.
The initiative focuses on competing in the largest U.S. cities, launching the season with significant events after the conclusion of the NFL playoffs, and aiming to dominate the summer months with compelling tournaments.
These proposed schedule modifications are anticipated to be revealed in the coming months, potentially around The Players Championship in March 2026. The new PGA Tour CEO may use this prominent event to announce the future direction of the tour.
Historically, cities like New York, Chicago, Washington, and Boston, which are among the top 10 media markets, once hosted PGA Tour events but no longer do. The tour is also considering adjustments to its early-season January events in Hawaii, potentially moving the season's start to after the Super Bowl.
