The PGA Tour returns to Black Desert with a new title sponsor (Bank of Utah) and a much smaller purse – $6 million, down from $7.5 million – than when it made its debut last year.
But that’s typical of all FedExCup Fall tournaments.
The PGA Tour had seven fall events in 2023 totaling $56.6 million, all but one for $8 million or more. Last year there were eight tournaments with a prize pool of $58.3 million. Las Vegas is no longer part of the schedule, and so the seven tournaments in 2025 will have a total prize pool of $45 million.
What next year’s fall schedule looks like remains a work in progress.
Sponsorship for the Mississippi tournament ended this year. The PGA Tour added the Good Good Championship for Austin, Texas, in November 2026. Sports Business Journal reports that another fall event is coming in Asheville, North Carolina.
The Mexico Open, which followed the west coast swing, is also expected to shift to the fall portion of the schedule.
It has yet to be determined whether Procore will extend its sponsorship in Napa, California, the traditional start of the FedExCup Fall. This year it got a huge boost when all but two US Ryder Cup players attended – Scottie Scheffler won – to avoid a month off. It could be a spot for Presidents Cup players from both teams.
