What’s going to the PGA Tour schedule appear like in 2024 and what is going to it imply for these in any respect ranges of the sport? Former Grand Champion Wealthy Beem takes a have a look at what golf will appear like subsequent season and explains why Designated Occasions cannot examine to the LIV Golf League Tour…
The adjustments to the PGA Tour schedule are attention-grabbing to say the least, with the route they’re taking in one thing they’ve most likely been occupied with lengthy earlier than LIV was a part of the dialog.
Rory McIlroy talked about to me on the Genesis Invitational final yr that large adjustments had been coming to the PGA Tour which steered to me that extra money and enhancements had been coming so what we noticed introduced this week I believe , that is precisely it.

After some ‘drastic’ adjustments to the PGA Tour had been introduced, Rory McIlroy, James Day and Billy Horschel react and talk about the pitch cuts and adjustments to these not within the high 50
What we’ll get with the adjustments to the PGA Tour is that it turns into a greater product the place it aligns nearer to one thing just like the F1 calendar or the Premier League the place you already know the place and when one of the best of one of the best will compete in opposition to one another.
The one factor that is most likely going to remove is the very fact that you will have the identical gamers in these designated occasions again and again, however you additionally get the prospect to see some contemporary younger faces making their manner into these tournaments.

On Wednesday, PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan introduced plans for a revamped 2024 schedule, with the adjustments backed by FedExCup champion Rory McIlroy.
Lots of people will assume it is like a two-speed tour, but it surely’s at all times been that manner so let’s not attempt to fake in any other case! What we’ll have now could be principally a transparent solution to present the place each skilled golfer needs to be and present the best way to get there.
Individuals who criticize him are fast to evaluate and infrequently do not step again to consider what it means for the game. Folks bemoan the truth that there will probably be extra restricted discipline occasions with out cuts, however we have had that for years with the World Golf Championships, in order that’s nothing new.

I perceive the criticism and accusations that they are solely making these adjustments due to LIV, however criticizing them for ‘following go well with’ on this and that’s simply plain flawed – the PGA Tour is simply right here to determine one of the best gamers in our sport.
How comparable are Designated Occasions to LIV?
There’ll at all times be questions as as to whether that is in response to LIV and I believe LIV gamers are at all times going to counsel that the PGA Tour is simply imitating what they’re doing however I simply do not see it on this manner. in any respect.
The one big distinction between the PGA Tour adjustments and what LIV gives is that it’s important to combat your manner into these designated occasions, so it is extra than simply signing on the dotted line and receiving large bucks to be on a chosen workforce.
It is not a crack in any respect in opposition to the fellows at LIV, however they’re getting one thing assured for his or her complete season regardless. They’ve contracts to play for a yr or two they usually know what cash is, so it is a completely completely different world than the place not everybody will get a spot in an occasion for good.
You will nonetheless need to go on the market and show your price with a view to qualify for these designated occasions on the PGA Tour, so it isn’t robotically given to you and you continue to need to earn that proper to play there.
There’ll nonetheless be fluctuations, albeit on the low finish versus Rory McIlroy and the larger names expelled, however you will have gamers who must play their finest to get into it. .
The underside finish of the LIV leaderboards proper now usually have the identical 5 – 6 miles behind the winners. It will probably nonetheless occur, however I believe these designated occasions will entice the most popular gamers from that time on as an alternative of gamers robotically as a part of a 14-week season.
A greater schedule for everybody?
Simply since you’re competing in a chosen occasion does not imply it does not assure your future on the high. Sure, you might be assured a paycheck and a few FedExCup factors, however you will not get many factors if you happen to do not play nicely!
The schedule adjustments arguably make these full occasions extra vital for all PGA Tour gamers, not simply these not close to the highest of the world rankings who wish to compete in these greater tournaments.

I believe that makes the product higher as a result of you are going to have these hungry younger guys who need to exhibit how good they’re, but in addition guys who aren’t on high of their sport and need to earn factors to keep away from escaping the extra large occasions.
If these guys on the high of the world rankings aren’t enjoying very nicely and need to keep in these designated occasions, they will don’t have any alternative however to go to these different occasions to try to decide up some much-needed factors.
I do not assume guys will play much less and fewer, as some have steered. Quite the opposite, it would find yourself including an additional occasion or two to most individuals’s schedules to keep away from working the chance of them dropping out of the highest tier of tournaments.
There’ll nonetheless be loads of different gamers who aren’t near the highest of the world rankings capable of make an excellent residing, whereas nonetheless being able to maneuver as much as the largest occasions on the PGA Tour as these adjustments unfold. .
To get into designated occasions, you will clearly must play nicely in common season occasions, however you additionally know that with an excellent two or three week window, you are going to bounce proper into the tournaments you need to be in. .
It is also instantaneous gratification, realizing {that a} good run will get you to those occasions relatively than having to attend one other calendar yr. I simply assume it may give the followers one of the best gamers – in the mean time – on individuals’s TV screens or in entrance of them, which might solely be an excellent factor.
