Aaron Rai stunned the field to win the PGA Championship at Aronimink, prompting praise from peers and a push to expand PGA Tour field sizes for Signature Events to about 120 players with a cut, a plan outlined by CEO Brian Rolapp.
The PGA Tour has approved significant changes to its qualification process and field sizes starting in 2026, reducing the number of fully exempt players from 125 to 100 and altering the number of spots from the Korn Ferry Tour and other qualifying events.
