2020-21 PGA Tour Schedule Features Six Majors, Olympics, 50 Events
/
Other than the forthcoming Asia swing moving to the western United States, there are not many major changes to the PGA Tour schedule in the name of minimizing travel. The various “swings” remain in tact, with some maneuvering in Florida that will not help the Honda Classic much.
There are just 10 days between the end of The Open and the rescheduled Tokyo Olympic Games, should they go forward.
As for other changes and venues to look forward to, Brian Wacker at GolfDigest.com notes:
Other notable changes include the Bermuda Championship, scheduled for Nov. 26-29 in the week after the Zozo, being elevated to full FedEx Cup point status after the WGC-HSBC Champions in China, originally slated for the same week, was officially canceled earlier this week. Likewise, the Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship also will be played with full points available.
Meanwhile, as previously reported, the tour’s Florida swing has been reconfigured with the Honda Classic moving to the week after the Players Championship, March 18-21, while the Valspar Championship moves to the first week of May, after the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.
Five new venues will also be featured in the 2020-21 season: Shadow Creek and Sherwood; Memorial Park (Houston Open); TPC Craig Ranch (AT&T Byron Nelson) and Caves Valley Golf Club, outside Baltimore (BMW Championship).
