The 2022-23 schedule includes a record $415 million in prize money in official events and another $145 million in bonuses, as well as $75 million for the FedEx Cup.
The 2022-23 schedule will include 44 official regular-season tournaments, including the four majors, and three FedEx Cup playoffs.
LIV Golf, which is being financed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, will have 48 players on four-man teams competing for $400 million in prize money.
With guaranteed contracts worth between $100 million and $200 million, LIV Golf has been able to lure away some of the best players in the world.
The final season of the PGA Tour will be a wraparound. The tour will return to a calendar-year schedule in 24 years.
Only the top 70 players will be eligible for the first FedEx Cup playoff event at the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis, Tennessee.
"We heard from our fans and the overwhelming sentiment was that they wanted more consequences for both the FedEx Cup regular season and the playoffs, and to further strengthen events that traditionally feature top players competing head-to-head." We feel very confident that we've accomplished all of the objectives and created compelling drama for every tournament.
The number of official tour events will be decided after the FedEx Cup playoffs. All players with status will be eligible to play in those tournaments, but those not in the top 70 will be competing for FedEx Cup points and status in the future. The top 70 players in the FedEx Cup playoffs will be exempt for the next season.
The top performers from the fall will compete in an international series that will include limited fields and no cuts. The dates and locations of the fall events will be announced later this year.
The purses of the six invitationals were increased by a total of $46 million. The prize money for the first two FedEx Cup events will increase.
