The PGA TOUR just revealed its future — and it could change professional golf forever.

In this episode of The Golf Podcast we break down the PGA TOUR’s massive new competitive structure that is set to reshape professional golf beginning in 2028. From the introduction of a Championship Series and Challenger Series to promotion and relegation, new playoff formats, rotating Tour Championship venues, and the long-awaited return of match play, these changes could represent the biggest overhaul of the PGA TOUR in decades.

We discuss what the new schedule means for players, sponsors, fans, and the future of professional golf, including how the Championship Series will feature elevated purses, smaller fields, and guaranteed access for the top players in the game. We also take a closer look at the Challenger Series, how players will earn promotion, and what role the Korn Ferry Tour may play moving forward.

Plus, we debate whether these sweeping changes are the ultimate legacy of LIV Golf’s disruption and whether the turmoil of the past several years has ultimately led to a better product for golf fans. Finally, we dive into the proposed postseason format, why match play could transform the Tour Championship, and which iconic golf courses could become future hosts. If you want to understand the future of the PGA TOUR, this episode is a must-listen.
