The PGA Tour told players that it will go ahead with a slate of events that feature smaller fields and no 36-hole cut—similar to rival LIV Golf’s format
The battle for the future of golf between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf has also been a clash over how tournaments are played. Now the PGA Tour is adopting a series of changes that happen to include some of the untraditional formats used by its Saudi-backed rival.
In a memo sent to players Wednesday and reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, commissioner Jay Monahan said the Tour is going forward with a “Designated Event Model” to highlight certain tournaments. Those select events will include a couple of notable features: smaller fields of only 70-80 players and no cut to reduce the field after 36 holes.
