-- The PGA Tour has approved recommendations from the Future Competition Committee that will dramatically reshape the tour's competitive structure starting in 2028, the tour announced Tuesday.The Future Competition Committee's recommended changes were approved by the PGA Tour Policy Board and PGA Tour Enterprises Board during meetings in West Hartford, Connecticut, on Monday.Among other changes, the tour's new model will include two separate series of tournaments -- the PGA Tour Championship Series and PGA Tour Challenger Series -- that will run concurrently during the season.

The Challenger Series will be the primary pathway to the Championship Series, with golfers competing to advance to the top track, including in-season elevation with two victories.The PGA Tour hopes the dramatic changes will bring "competitive clarity and heightened consequence" and "deliver a stronger, more compelling experience for fans, players and partners.""From day one, the focus of the Future Competition Committee has been to build the best version of the PGA Tour, and to do so in a way that reflects the voice of our players and the expectations of our fans," PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp said in a statement.

"The result is a new competitive model grounded in meritocracy, with clearer pathways, higher stakes and more consistency when the best players compete together. This model positions the PGA Tour for the future, and our focus now shifts to finalizing the details and preparing for implementation in 2028."Rolapp is scheduled to announce the changes during a news conference Tuesday at TPC River Highlands, the site of this week's Travelers Championship.

He briefed players on the details prior to talking to the media."This work was bigger than any one player or person -- it was about designing the strongest possible version of the PGA Tour for the future generations of fans and players," Tiger Woods, chairman of the Future Competition Committee, said in a statement. "From the beginning, the committee's focus was on delivering a better experience for our fans, while creating a model that best sets up the tour, its players and its partners for long-term success and stability."

Woods, who sought treatment outside the country following his arrest on a DUI charge in Florida in late March, returned in time for the board to approve the major changes.The Championship Series will feature up to 24 events, including 16 signature events, The Players Championship, four major championships, season-ending events and the Presidents Cup or Ryder Cup. Each of the 16 signature events will be 72-hole stroke-play tournaments with average field sizes of 120 golfers with 36-hole cuts to the top 65 and ties.

Each will have a purse of at least $20 million. The season will run from around February through August.At least the top 90 players in the points list from
