PGA Tour Announces Major Restructuring and Tiger Woods Makes First Public Appearance

In a significant shakeup, the PGA Tour has revealed a new two-tiered system set to launch in 2028, introducing a promotion and relegation format, alongside match play playoffs. The changes include adjustments to event formats, with the potential jeopardy of traditional tournaments like the Zurich Classic and Colonial. The announcement comes as Tiger Woods makes his first public appearance since his DUI arrest and rehabilitation, addressing the changes and focusing on the future of golf.
