2019 PGA Tour

The 2019 PGA Tour is the 104th season of the PGA Tour, and the 52nd since separating from the PGA of America. The season will begin on October 4, 2018.

Schedule

The following table lists official events for 2018–19.[1]

The schedule contains 46 events, two fewer than the previous season. The schedule was shortened in an effort to complete the FedEx Cup Playoffs by the end of August. The Houston Open and Greenbrier Classic will not be played in the shortened season, but will return in autumn of 2019 as part of the 2020 PGA Tour schedule.[2] Two new events were added to the schedule: the Rocket Mortgage Classic will be played at Detroit Golf Club in Detroit, Michigan, and the 3M Open will be played at the TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minnesota. Additionally, the WGC Invitational was relocated from Akron, Ohio to Memphis, Tennessee when FedEx took over sponsorship of the event. As a result, the FedEx St. Jude Classic will cease now that the relocated WGC event, WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational, will be played at the Classic's former location in Memphis. Quicken Loans National, played in the Washington, D.C. area, will no longer appear on the PGA Tour schedule. Firestone Country Club will no longer host a PGA Tour event, but the Senior Players Championship will now be contested there, with Bridgestone taking over as that event's title sponsor.[3]
