PGA Tour Reveals Two-Track Calendar Aiming for 2028 Reshaping

Golf Channel reports the PGA Tour is exploring a two-track calendar for 2028: Track 1 for 15–18 events (plus the four majors) with 120–130-player fields, Track 2 as a secondary circuit feeding into Track 1 via a qualifying path and DP World Tour promotions. Playoffs would be reduced to two events, sponsor exemptions into Track 1 would end, and top Track 1 status would be earned by around 90 players with promotions from Track 2/DP World Tour. Purses would stay near $20 million for Track 1 (The Players at $25 million), with timelines targeting summer updates and a start in mid-to-late January for scheduling, plus off-weeks after majors.
