PGA Tour urges Spieth to play fall events to safeguard star power
Spieth failed to crack the FedEx Cup top 50, ending his season with a 19th-place finish at the FedEx St. Jude Championship and missing the BMW Championship for the third straight year. The piece argues the PGA Tour should require Spieth to participate in at least a couple of Fall events (via sponsor invites if needed) to keep his box-office appeal alive and boost attention heading into 2027, noting sponsor invites may dwindle and a strong Fall showing—starting with events like the Baycurrent Classic—would silence critics and support the Tour’s schedule.
