2024 PGA Tour schedule: Tournaments, dates, purses and venues

The 2024 PGA Tour schedule has been announced, with a significant overhaul to the 48-event docket that golf fans have been accustomed to seeing in recent years.

The most significant changes to the schedule are going back to a calendar-year schedule, with the FedEx Cup season running from the start in January through the end of the Tour Championship in August. The FedEx Cup Fall will still unfold from September through November, but these tournaments will not count toward the full-season FedEx Cup standings -- rather, they will be added on to the FedEx Cup points earned through the FedEx St. Jude Championship to determine the top 125 in PGA Tour cards.

Signature events

The PGA Tour has created a series of signature events, all of which will have purses of at least $20 million: the Sentry Tournament of Champions, The Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational, the Memorial Tournament, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, the RBC Heritage, the Wells Fargo Championship and the Travelers Championship. These events will offer 700 FedEx Cup points to the winners and will have limited fields based on the top 50 in the prior year's FedEx Cup standings and other criteria.

FedEx Cup playoff changes

The FedEx Cup playoffs are changing for 2024 as well. The series will remain at three events, but only the top 70 players in the standings at the end of the regular season will qualify, with cuts to 50, then to 30 players after each of the FedEx Cup events. The FedEx Cup bonus pool increases this year to $100 million.

2024 PGA Tour schedule to feature new 'Signature Series,' with invitationals keeping 36-hole cuts

The PGA Tour has reversed course on its plan to alter the makeup of its three invitational tournaments in 2024, sources told Golf Digest who furthermore added that much of that is the doing of Tiger Woods—who only on Tuesday was given a seat on the tour’s policy board.

The tour announced in March that the Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational and the Memorial Tournament would be among eight no-cut designated events next year, but pushback from Woods—as well as from Jack Nicklaus and officials of the Arnold Palmer Invitational—has led to a compromise in which the three events will have a field of 80-90 players and a cut to the low 50 and ties and players within 10 shots of the lead. Woods is the host of the Genesis Invitational near Los Angeles. Nicklaus is founder and host of the Memorial in suburban Columbus, Ohio. The invitationals in recent years have had 120 players.

Sources not affiliated with the invitationals said the three events, with purses of $20 million (or possibly higher), could still pay a stipend to players who do not make the cut, similar to the Masters, which also has a cut to low 50 and ties, but no longer has a 10-shot rule. The Players also will have a cut with a full field of 144 players.

“The Masters was definitely the model for what eventually was decided,” said one tour player who has followed the discussions.

More From Golf Digest

Golfweek reported on Thursday that the 2024 schedule includes 80-player fields with a cut at the invitationals as part of a story on the proposed rundown of the entire schedule, which for the first time since 2013 features the full slate in a single calendar year. Other designated events, which will have smaller fields in the range of 60 players and no cut, will be the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, RBC Heritage, Wells Fargo Championship and Travelers Championship.

Sources say the collection of designated events will be called the "Signature Series." A spokesman for the PGA Tour said the tour would not comment, pending the formal announcement of the schedule.

At the Masters in April, Woods told reporters, “I certainly am pushing for my event to have a cut. I think that maybe the player-hosted events may have cuts. These are things that Jack and I are still in discussion with Jay and the board and the tour and the rest of the guys. That still is in flux.”

At the Memorial Tournament, Jon Rahm admitted that he had changed his mind about no-cut events, particularly at the invitationals. “I've gone back and forth on this issue,” Rahm said. “I, at first, was an advocate for no cut, and the more time has gone by I've become an advocate for a cut. So I think it's a part of the game, and I think it's an important part of the game, as harsh as it may be to cut out maybe only 20 players.”

Said one tour player on the prospect that the invitational would retain a cut despite a slightly smaller field: “Do you think it’s a coincidence that Tiger is now on the board and they have decided to keep cuts? Tiger won that battle.”

Woods was named a player director to the PGA Tour one day after joining with 40 other players in sending a letter to commissioner Jay Monahan on Monday requesting changes to the tour’s governance. Indications are that Woods prompted the drafting of the letter, which was first reported in the Washington Post.

The PGA Tour is expected to reveal the 2024 schedule to players during a meeting Tuesday at TPC Southwind prior to the FedEx St. Jude Invitational, the first of its three FedEx Cup playoff events. Golfweek reported that next year’s schedule features 47 events, eight of which occur in the fall after the Tour Championship that wraps up the FedEx Cup portion of the season. The season begins Jan. 4 at the no-cut designated event sponsored by Sentry. It no longer will be called the Tournament of Champions because it will invite winners from this year as well as the top 50 finishers in the FedEx Cup standings, which will be determined after next week’s opening playoff event in Memphis.

The schedule also includes a week off for the Olympic Golf competition the first week of August . A source knowledgeable of the schedule said the tour seeks to fill an open date in the fall the week of Nov. 7-10. The tour recently added the Black Desert Championship in Utah to be held Oct. 3-6.

The tour had previously intended to announce the 2024 schedule in late June, but was held up by a number of issues, including a delay in the sponsorship of the Heritage and Canadian Open, both sponsored by RBC. That deal reportedly was finalized today, with RBC renewing for one year. A report via Sports Business Journal said RBC is waiting to see how the recent framework deal that includes sponsorship of the PGA Tour and DP World Tour by the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia gets finalized before it proceeds with sponsorship beyond 2024.

Pga tour releases official schedule for 2024; fedex champ to get $25 million, share this article.

The PGA Tour officially released its 2024 schedule Monday.

The season will be a calender-year schedule for the first time since 2012. There are 36 regular-season events, down from 44 this season. There are still three FedEx Cup Playoff events.

The fall part of the schedule will finalize the top 125 for the 2025 season as only the top 70 finishers in the FEC standings earn their way into the postseason, a move that started this season.

The first regular-season event in 2024 is now called The Sentry and will be followed by the Sony Open in Hawaii. The first stateside event will be The American Express in Palm Desert, California.

“We are excited about the roll-out of the PGA Tour’s reimagined schedule and what the season will offer to our fans: a January start with stars competing head-to-head more often, alongside the weekly drama of life-altering moments and the emergence of new stars,” said commissioner Jay Monahan.

The are eight “signature events”, which were initially called designated events but had the moniker “elevated” events during the 2022-23 season.

The eight are:

•  AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am
• The Genesis Invitational
• Arnold Palmer Invitational
• RBC Heritage
• Wells Fargo Championship
• The Memorial Tournament
• The Travelers Championship

The three player-hosted invitationals – Genesis, APR, Memorial – will have a 36-hole cut; the other five will not.

The Farmers Insurance Open in January in San Diego will again feature a Saturday finish for the third consecutive season.

For the third year, there are three tournaments that will also be part of the DP World Tour’s Race to Dubai: Genesis Scottish Open, the event scheduled for July 11-14 (formerly the Barbasol Championship) and the Barracuda Championship in July.

There is a break in the schedule for the Olympic men’s competition in France in August.

The playoffs are the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind in Memphis, the BMW Championship at Castle Pines Golf Club in Castle Rock, Colorado, for the first time (Castle Pines hosted the International from 1986-2006) and the Tour Championship, which is once again at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.

The FedEx Cup champion in 2024 will bank a $25 million bonus.

Everything You Need To Know About The Eight PGA Tour Signature Events In 2024

The group of elevated tournaments on the PGA Tour features an increase in prize money and FedEx Cup points - but what are they and when are they in 2024?

• Sign up to Golf Monthly Newsletter Newsletter

PGA Tour 'Signature Events' are now an instrumental feature on the circuit's calendar in 2024 after a year of ' Designated Events ' in 2022-23.

The eight tournaments - which don't include the Majors , playoff events and Players Championship - feature smaller fields but increased prize purses and more FedEx Cup points (700 to the winner of each).

Three of the events - hosted by legends of the game - will feature a 36-hole cut and 20% of the total prize purse awarded to the winner while the remaining tournaments are no-cut competitions with the usual 18% prize handed to the champion.

The top-50 members of the reshuffled FedEx Cup standings from the 2022-23 season automatically qualified for all Signature Events this year, while 'The Next 10' - which includes the top-10 players on the 2024 FedExCup point list, not otherwise exempt via a higher priority category - will also receive a start. 

For the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Genesis Invitational, the Next 10 referred to those players who finished between 51-60 on the final 2022-23 FedExCup Fall points list.

To ensure every PGA Tour member has a chance of making it, there is another exemption category called the 'Swing 5.' Those who secure the highest number of FedEx Cup points in between Signature Events will book a tee time at the upcoming tournament. The winner of any PGA Tour event is also eligible for the remaining 'Signature' tournaments in 2024.

Without further ado, let's take a look at the eight Signature Events on the PGA Tour calendar in 2024.

What Are The Eight Signature Events On The PGA Tour In 2024?

The sentry (january 4-7).

Chris Kirk is the 2024 Sentry champion

Formerly known as The Sentry Tournament of Champions, the more concisely-named event kicked off the 2024 PGA Tour season at the monster-drive-enabling Kapalua Plantation Course in Hawaii.

As the first PGA Tour competition of 2024, The Sentry is the only Signature Event which did not include either qualifiers from The Next 10 or The Swing 5. Only PGA Tour winners from 2023 and the top-50 members from the 2022-23 FedExCup standings teed it up.

Chris Kirk won the 2024 running after an incredible overall score of 29-under par - one shot in front of Sahith Theegala and two ahead of Jordan Spieth .

AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (February 1-4)

Wyndham Clark holds up the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am trophy in 2024

The biggest Pro-Am golf tournament in the world took place at two iconic courses in early February - Pebble Beach Golf Links and Spyglass Hill Golf Course .

Despite being eagerly anticipated as arguably the first showpiece event of the season, several days of stormy weather majorly disrupted the tournament and caused it to be shortened to 54 holes.

Wyndham Clark was crowned the 2024 champion, though, thanks to a simply stunning 12-under-par effort on Saturday - the final day of competition.

The Genesis Invitational (February 15-18)

Only the WM Phoenix Open separated the second and third Signature Events on the PGA Tour in 2024 during an undoubtedly exciting stretch of golf.

Tiger Woods hosted the Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club shortly after Valentine's Day, with the 15-time Major champion briefly making hearts flutter in what was his first PGA Tour start of the year.

However, he was forced to withdraw due to illness during round two and was not able to be in attendance as former Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama produced a masterful Sunday performance to take home the title.

Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard (March 7-10)

The Arnold Palmer Invitational precedes The Players Championship and often features a Major-like field in terms of its strength. Being that it is also now a Signature Event, too, many of the world's top-70 are involved on a Bay Hill course that can cause even the strongest player to crumble somewhat.

The event in Florida sees the winner receive a red cardigan sweater, in memory of Arnold Palmer - a tradition that began with the 2017 tournament after Palmer's death in 2016.

It's 2024 edition was won by Scottie Scheffler after the American romped to the title on 15-under, five shots clear of runner up, Wyndham Clark.

RBC Heritage (April 18-21)

Perhaps unlucky in terms of its timing, the RBC Heritage takes place days after The Masters finishes in mid-April at the wonderfully-picturesque Harbour Town Golf Links on the eastern coast of the United States.

Not that the event doesn't mean almost as much as The Masters to some. 2023 winner Matt Fitzpatrick claimed his first regular PGA Tour title in South Carolina at a location his family had been going on holiday to since he was six years old.

Wells Fargo Championship (May 9-12)

2024 will mark the final Wells Fargo Championship, possibly ever, after the financial-services company announced it would not be renewing its sponsorship of the tournament.

Wyndham Clark won at Quail Hollow in 2023, and he will surely be back to see if he can defend his crown at the world-famous course.

The Memorial Tournament presented by Workday (June 6-9)

The ideal warm-up to the U.S Open at Pinehurst No.2 in 2024, the Memorial Tournament is a brutal test for players - indicated by Viktor Hovland 's winning score of seven-under last year. He out-lasted Denny McCarthy in a playoff at Muirfield Village Golf Club in 2023 before ultimately claiming the FedEx Cup in August.

This year's Memorial Tournament takes place smack bang in the middle of a thrilling stretch of golf and is the penultimate Signature Event of the year.

Travelers Championship (July 20-23)

The final Signature Event of the season is due to take place one week after the U.S Open at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut. Keegan Bradley took home the title and a check for $4 million after winning by three shots at the same tournament in 2023.

As the FedEx Cup playoffs come into view, this will be the players' last chance to make serious moves towards the top-10 and give themselves a better chance of making some serious money.

Monday 7 August 2023 21:18, UK

The PGA Tour has released a new "reimagined" schedule for the 2024 season, which features more no-cut events than ever before and an increased $25m prize for the winner of the FedExCup.

Returning to a calendar-year schedule for the first time since 2012, the PGA Tour has described the events as being "interconnected like never before to deliver maximum drama and consequence".

The FedExCup Regular Season will consist of 36 events.

The 2024 season begins in early January with the 'Opening Drive' double-header at The Sentry and Sony Open in Hawaii, and runs through to the Wyndham Championship in early August.

"We are excited about the roll-out of the PGA Tour's reimagined schedule and what the season will offer to our fans: a January start with stars competing head-to-head more often, alongside the weekly drama of life-altering moments and the emergence of new stars," said PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan.

"While winning on the PGA Tour continues to be the ultimate - and most difficult - challenge, we have further connected every tournament, with more at stake each week.

"From The Sentry through the FedExCup Playoffs and into the soon-to-be-announced FedExCup Fall, this new, cadence will create consistent excitement for our fans and reward players like never before.

"We are grateful to the membership - especially the Player Directors and Player Advisory Council - as well as our tournaments and partners for the collaboration that has set us up for an exciting 2024."

The release of the 2024 calendar comes two months after the the PGA Tour and DP World Tour announced a shock proposed agreement with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which funds LIV Golf, to form a new joint commercial entity in order to "unify the game".

The 'signature events' explained

Previously referred to as 'designated events' in 2023, the newly-renamed signature events underline the continued evolution of the PGA Tour's season format.

The eight events are limited-field tournaments with increased prize money and FedExCup points.

Five of these will not feature a cut, but the three player-hosted invitationals - The Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational and the Memorial Tournament - will still feature a 36-hole cut to the top 50 and ties and any player within 10 shots of the lead.

The eight 'signature events' are as follows:

• The Sentry (January 1-7)
• AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (January 29-February 4)
• The Genesis Invitational (February 12-18)
• Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard (March 4-10)
• RBC Heritage (April 15-21)
• Wells Fargo Championship (May 6-12)
• the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday (June 3-9)
• Travelers Championship (June 17-23)

Explaining the qualification process for these events, the PGA Tour said in a statement: "The 2024 schedule cadence connects events through several new eligibility paths, allowing trending players to earn Signature Event starts and ensuring every member the opportunity to compete alongside the game's best.

"The Sentry is the season's first Signature Event and includes PGA TOUR winners from the previous calendar year as well as the top 50 members from the 2022-23 FedExCup standings (i.e. those who qualify for the BMW Championship, the second FedExCup Playoffs event).

"Eligibility for the remaining seven Signature Events (field sizes anticipated to be between 70-80 players) includes the top 50 members from the 2022-23 FedExCup standings and 15 members who can play their way in through The Next 10 and The Swing 5."

The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am is a new addition to that list for 2024 and will feature a revised format. Amateurs will now compete alongside professionals (80 players) over the first two rounds, with the competition limited to professionals only for the final two rounds.

Beem: Designated events with cuts will create more excitement

2002 PGA Championship winner and Sky Sports' Rich Beem on the new calendar:

"Looking at the schedule I think there's very few surprises. The designated events and those three which are designated, where they will have cuts - the ones that Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer host - they are going to have a cut into the low 50 [players] and then it will be an increased purse to the winner from $3.6m to $4m.

"I think that will create a lot more excitement for fans at home and for us watching on TV just for the simple fact that a lot of times this year, especially on Fridays, we are looking at a lot of drama for some players trying to finally make the cut.

"If you look at the way, even the top players in the world play the game at the highest level, they are grinding it as much as they possibly can to stick around for the final 36 because they know anything is possible.

"I'm glad we have at least three of those designated events, out of the eight, that are going to go ahead and have a cut line. I think that's going to be really valuable. What happens with that will determine whether we have cuts going forward in those designated events."

PGA Tour Schedule 2024: Dates, Locations, Changes, & Signature Events

The complete schedule for the 2024 PGA Tour season has been officially released.

At the beginning of the year, all players start with zero FedEx Cup points, giving everyone a fresh start for the upcoming season.

In 2024, the competition will officially begin on January 4th. There are officially 36 events starting in January with the Sentry Tournament of Champions.

There will be eight signature events with elevated purses, four major championships, 18 full-field events, and five additional tournaments.

The new schedule is designed to up the stakes, delivering maximum consequences and drama every week.

According to PGA Tour Commissioner, Jay Monahan, the schedule will challenge their players, connecting every tournament resulting in higher stakes every week.

The 2024 PGA Tour Schedule

There will be eight signature events that will feature increased purses and FedEx Cup points.

The newest edition to the signature events will be the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. As an signature event, it’ll give newer players a chance to qualify for other tournaments throughout the year.

Unlike this past season, signature events are only expected to feature 70-80 players. Every signature event will require players to qualify via FedEx Cup rankings or by playing their way in.

In total, the Tour will have 33 events played in the U.S., two in Mexico and Scotland. The PGA Tour will also stop in Canada, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico.

There’s more on the line this year too and the purses are bigger than ever. While not all purses have been announced, most signature events are valued at $20 million or more.

Check out the final 2024 PGA Tour schedule below.

2024 FedEx Cup Playoffs Schedule

Along with the 2024 PGA Tour schedule, the FedEx Cup Playoffs have also been announced for next year. Following the same format, there will be three events with only the top 70 qualifying for the first event at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.

The season will round out with the Tour Championship when the winner at East Lake Golf Club will be announced.

No purses have been revealed for the 2024 FedEx Cup Playoffs yet.

2024 preview: Twenty-four storylines to follow in 2024

Editor’s note: The PGA TOUR is celebrating the start of a new year with Opening Drive, a two-week kickoff to the 2024 season. Players are refreshed and ready to shine, and they’ll need to bring their best from the start because of the season’s condensed time frame. PGATOUR.COM’s preview content will prepare you for the start of the 2024 season by telling you the players and storylines you need to know before the first shot is hit.

The PGA TOUR returns to a calendar-year season and will kick off the era of the Signature Events at The Sentry at Kapalua, Jan. 4-7. We’ll be headed to Valhalla (PGA Championship), Pinehurst No. 2 (U.S. Open) and Royal Troon (The Open Championship), in addition to old favorites Augusta National and TPC Sawgrass.

Max Homa, Rickie Fowler, and FedExCup champion Viktor Hovland look to take it to the next level; Jason Day, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, and Justin Thomas are in search of their old selves; and a revitalized Scottie Scheffler could be on the verge of world domination.

Oh, and then there’s the return of Tiger Woods to look forward to.

Here are 24 storylines for 2024:

1. Tiger Woods walks the walk

Although Tiger Woods beat only two other players at the recent Hero World Challenge, his first start since he withdrew from the Masters in April, his score didn’t matter. More important was that he walked all 72 holes and wasn’t in pain after ankle fusion surgery in April. He hopes to play a tournament a month in ’24, which may mean increasing his stamina.

“Yeah. I think that I can get into the rhythm of it,” he said at the Hero, where he struggled to finish off rounds. “I think that having a couple of weeks off to recover, a week to build up, there's no reason why I can't get into that rhythm. It's just a matter of getting in better shape, basically. I feel like my game's not that far off, but I need to get in better shape.”

2. Scottie Scheffler threatens world domination

Despite ranking 162nd in Strokes Gained: Putting last season, Scottie Scheffler was so superior from tee to green that he won twice, defending his title at the WM Phoenix Open and capturing THE PLAYERS Championship. He also racked up 17 top-10 finishes, the most since Vijay Singh’s 18 in 2005. And yet you’d still have to say Scheffler underachieved.

There were weeks, like at the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday, when he should have won but struggled mightily on the greens. Determined to find a fix, Scheffler started working with putting coach Phil Kenyon prior to the Ryder Cup and won the Hero World Challenge in December. He ranked sixth in SG: Putting for the week and didn’t have a three-putt. The prospect of Scheffler putting well should scare the rest of the PGA TOUR.

2024 Race for the FedExCup | How It Works

3. Viktor Hovland could make major leap

You can’t help but wonder what the pride of Norway will do for an encore. The hottest player in golf after winning the BMW Championship and the FedExCup, Hovland, 26, was also a terror for Europe at the Ryder Cup in Rome, where he went 3-1-1 and with Ludvig Åberg was on the good side of a record 9-and-7 victory over Brooks Koepka and Scottie Scheffler.

Hovland will have his work cut out if he wants to one-up last season. He could start by winning a major, where he’s begun to seriously threaten, or THE PLAYERS Championship.

4. Lucas Glover, Camilo Villegas enjoy the ride

Lucas Glover was spending more weeks on the road than he wanted, but he needed reps to learn how to use his new broomstick putter. Camilo Villegas didn’t have much margin for error, either. Both became the most recent example of how quickly everything can change on the PGA TOUR.

Glover captured the Wyndham Championship and FedEx St. Jude Championship in consecutive weeks. No longer just trying to keep his PGA TOUR card, he was now inside the FedExCup Top 50, and guaranteed entry into the 2024 Majors and Signature Events. Villegas went T2, 1 at the World Wide Technology Championship and Bermuda Championship, respectively, earning back his PGA TOUR card. Having revived their careers, both can settle in and enjoy the ride in ’24.

5. Justin Thomas gets back to business

We’re used to seeing Thomas win big events (PGA Championship, PLAYERS Championship) and lead U.S. Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup teams. Last season, though, was the exception. He missed the FedExCup Playoffs by the roll of a ball and went 1-2-1 as a Ryder Cup captain’s pick. He showed flashes of form in the fall, though, before an especially encouraging week at the recent Hero World Challenge (solo third).

“I'm playing really well,” he said at the Hero. “I'm excited, everything feels good. … I feel like I have good control of my game right now. I just kind of, I'm in a good head space, just kind of staying patient and I feel like I can go on a little run of birdies at any point in time.”

6. Ludvig Åberg leads golf’s new wave

A new wave of young, big-hitting stars from overseas earned their TOUR cards in 2023: Ludvig Åberg, Min Woo Lee and Nicolai Højgaard. How they’ll do in ’24 is a tantalizing prospect.

Åberg won both before and after his Ryder Cup debut (2-2), capturing the DP World Tour’s European Masters and PGA TOUR’s The RSM Classic. Højgaard, who went 0-2-1 at the Ryder Cup, bounced back to win the DP World Tour Championship. And Lee recently shot a combined 50 under to win the Asian Tour’s Macao Open and DP World Tour’s Australian PGA Championship. He also finished third at the Australian Open.

7. Rory McIlroy tries, again, to take the fifth

The mop-topped kid who won four majors by age 25 hasn’t won one since. He has seven top-10 finishes in his last eight major starts, including two seconds and a third, plus a T6 in his most recent attempt, at The Open in July. In May, the PGA Championship returns to Valhalla, where McIlroy, 34, won his last major (’14 PGA).

Has the three-time FedExCup champ been more encouraged or frustrated by the close calls?

“Yeah, I think a little bit of both,” he said at The Open. “Over the last two years would I have loved to have picked one of those off that I finished up there? Absolutely. But every time I tee it up or most times I tee it up, I'm right there. I can't sit here and be too frustrated. You think about my performances in the majors between like 2016 and 2019, it's a lot better than that. Again, I'm optimistic about the future, and just got to keep plugging away.”

8. Jason Day still intent on returning to No. 1

Jason Day and his wife, Ellie, just had their fifth child in September, Winnie Joanna, and Day enjoyed a long-hoped-for career resurgence in ’23. After a long dry spell, he returned to the winner’s circle with a victory at the AT&T Byron Nelson this year – his 13th TOUR win – and finished 28th in the FedExCup. He openly aspires to return to world No. 1.

A good sign: Day, 36, teamed with LPGA star Lydia Ko to win the inaugural Grant Thornton Invitational. He has said he wants to get back to the player he was when he won five times including the PGA Championship in 2015, and tacked on three more victories, including THE PLAYERS Championship, in ’16, reaching world No. 1. The plan seems to be working.

9. Wyndham Clark resets after dream season

No one was paying much attention to the former amateur standout, who had the tools but was getting in own way. After an attitude adjustment, he captured the Wells Fargo Championship and U.S. Open, so he has the blueprint; now it’s just a matter of what he does with it. He said at the Ryder Cup that he still believes he has room to grow into his potential.

“If I don't think I'm better than every player out here, then what am I doing?” he said at Rome’s Marco Simone, where the U.S. Team took a humbling loss. “If I'm trying to be the best player in the world, which is what I'm trying to be, I've got to believe that.”

10. Who will qualify for their first TOUR Championship in 2024? And who will walk away from East Lake with the FedExCup?

It would be foolish to think Åberg won’t be at East Lake, given the rocket-like trajectory of this product of Sweden by way of Texas Tech. In short order he won on both sides of the Atlantic and displayed a poise, maturity and excellence that was beyond his years at the Ryder Cup.

As for who will capture the FedExCup, given the importance of the BMW Championship in setting up a player to collect the coveted hardware (See: Hovland, Viktor), let’s consider that the BMW will be at Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado this year. Wyndham Clark is not only from Colorado, but also, he’s got the power to take full advantage of the ultra-high elevation.

11. Can Jordan Spieth get back to winning?

Winless in ’23, Spieth had a lot going on, welcoming his second child, Sophie, and being named to the PGA TOUR Policy Board. He also had a wrist injury in the spring, reinjured it in the fall, and recovered in time to make five pars, two eagles, six birdies, four bogeys, and one double-bogey in his Round 1 68 at the Hero World Challenge in December. In other words, he’s back to his old self.

12. Which Signature Event(s) stands to deliver the most excitement?

Everyone loves the new, new thing, and the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Genesis Invitational – both played on major championship courses – come early in the new era of Signature Events. What’s more, Pebble is expected to get a very different field, which could create must-see TV amid the gorgeous natural scenery of the Monterey Peninsula.

13. Can Collin Morikawa stay healthy enough to ride fall momentum?

Back problems crept up on Morikawa for the first time in his career last season, but a coaching change to Mark Blackburn, and some subtle tweaks to take pressure off his back, has already paid dividends with his victory at the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP.

14. We just saw the tightest race for Rookie of the Year that we can remember. Who are the front-runners for the 2024 award?

Belgium’s Adrien Dumont de Chassart was the Big Ten Golfer of the Year at Illinois, and upon turning pro won immediately on the Korn Ferry Tour, one of six top-10 finishes in 11 starts. Gordon Sargent is expected to turn pro after the end of his spring season at Vanderbilt. Ryo Hisatsune just won Rookie of the Year on the DP World Tour and would achieve a neat double if he can do it on the PGA TOUR. And don’t forget about Texas product Pierceson Coody.

15. Who will win their first major in 2024? Who will become a multiple major winner?

Rory McIlroy won the PGA Championship the last time it came to Valhalla in Kentucky, in 2014, but Rickie Fowler finished T3, two shots back. He’ll get another shot at it in May, and is the most due, or overdue, to break through for his first major. Keep an eye on Ludvig Åberg, though, who not only has the game to win a major, but he’s also too young to know how hard it is. Now that he’s putting well again, Scottie Scheffler is clearly the best bet to win multiple majors.

16. Who will be the Joel Dahmen of 'Full Swing Season 2'?

The general public may be about to learn the full story of Chris Kirk, who received the PGA TOUR Courage Award at The RSM Classic and was followed by the docuseries last season. His heartwarming story of triumph and redemption is likely to connect with viewers.

17. Late-bloomer Eric Cole is ready to win

Cole played in 37 tournaments last season, and among his seven top-10 finishes was a playoff loss to Chris Kirk at The Classic at The Palm Beaches (formerly The Honda Classic). He also finished in the top five in four of his five starts in the FedExCup Fall. A win seems imminent.

18. Max Homa wants the pressure

It’s not unusual for a player to step up in the Ryder Cup and, thus imbued with self-belief, get over the line in a major. Homa has been open about his poor record in the majors, but he was encouraged by his top-10 finish at The Open Championship in July and went 3-1-1 in his first Ryder Cup in the fall, the lone American with a winning record. That will serve him well the next time he feels the weight of history on his shoulders as he sizes up a shot.

19. TPC Scottsdale: Where a threepeat is more likely than a repeat

The most likely repeat winner in ’24 is the same as the most likely threepeat winner in ’24: Scottie Scheffler at WM Phoenix Open, where his length and impeccable tee-to-green game is amply rewarded. Also, there’s something about TPC Scottsdale that keeps guys coming back to the trophy ceremony year after year, like Hideki Matsuyama, another flusher, in 2016-’17.

20. Sahith Theegala knows he can do it

With a different bounce and/or lucky break, the former Pepperdine All-American might have won the 2022 WM Phoenix Open and/or Travelers Championship. Now, though, Theegala is a PGA TOUR winner (Fortinet Championship, FedExCup Fall). With his ability to scramble and score from everywhere and anywhere, the Spieth-like Theegala could win anywhere, but keep an eye on him at TPC Scottsdale, TPC River Highlands, and, yes, Augusta National.

21. Nick Taylor adjusts to life as a logo

Last season Taylor authored arguably the biggest shot in the modern history of Canadian golf, draining a 72-foot eagle putt in a sudden-death playoff to become the first Canadian-born player to win the RBC Canadian Open in 69 years. The tournament acted quickly to preserve the moment forever, or at least the foreseeable future. Can Taylor defend his RBC Canadian Open title now that he’s part of the tournament’s logo?

22. Mike Weir aims for Presidents Cup shift

Can Mike Weir and Canada rally the International Team at the Presidents Cup in Montreal? The U.S. has dominated, but the performance of Tom Kim at Quail Hollow and a closer Cup last time around suggests young talent may yet help the Internationals turn it around. What’s more, Weir may be buoyed by countrymen like Nick Taylor, coming off the biggest win of his career, and the arrival of Australia’s Min Woo Lee on the world stage.

23. Why The Next 10 or The Swing 5 could produce a Signature Event winner

Respect the heater. That’s not just a line from “The Hangover,” it’s a golf truism. Lucas Glover and Camilo Villegas, each of whom completely changed their lives in the course of a two-week tear in the late summer (Glover) and fall (Villegas) were just the latest players to remind of the significance of momentum and how it can trump all, even the best fields in golf.

24. Rickie Fowler still has one thing on his to-do list

Fowler’s swing changes didn’t take – he was 185th in the world to start last season – but his return to coach Butch Harmon has worked out nicely. Fowler led through 54 holes at the U.S. Open at L.A. Country Club but faded to finish T5. Not long after that, he ended a long, frustrating dry spell with his victory at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit. The winner of six PGA TOUR titles, including THE PLAYERS Championship, is up to 24th in the world – all that remains for him is to win a major.
