The PGA Tour\u2019s slow rollout of tournaments that will make up the top tier of the PGA Tour\u2019s new schedule continues.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, the Tour announced the Cadillac Championship as a Championship Series event, increasing the total to five confirmed events beyond the majors, Players Championship and FedEx Cup Playoffs.<\/p>\n
The Cadillac Championship, played at Trump National Doral outside of Miami, returned to Doral in 2026 after a 10-year absence. Played in May this past year, Cameron Young went wire to wire and beat Scottie Scheffler by six in a runaway victory. President Donald Trump was on hand for the final round.<\/p>\n
The Cadillac joins four other tournaments that were confirmed as Championship Series events just last week: The Sentry (now at Torrey Pines), Arnold Palmer Invitational, Travelers Championship and Sompo, which will take over the Napa, Calif., event in 2027 before it owns a Championship Series event in 2028 at a to-be-announced venue and location.<\/p>\n
PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp officially announced the new PGA Tour competitive structure last month, which, beginning in 2028, will feature a Championship Series track as well as a Challenger Series. The Championship Series events will feature the top players in the league and offer purses of $20 million versus $4 million on the Challenger Series. That means sponsors will have to pay big bucks for the Tour to host a Championship Series event, and while many of the announced tournaments have been somewhat predictable, there have still been some surprises (like the Sompo) and there could potentially be more.<\/p>\n
We likely won\u2019t know them until the next 2028 schedule drop, though. Until then, Rolapp plans to announce the complete tournament rundown in early 2027.<\/p>\n
