Overview
- CEO Brian Rolapp said Harris English’s talk of a 20–22 event season and a February kickoff reflects ongoing discussions, though nothing is finalized.
- Rolapp said he could see a season starting after the Super Bowl, citing the difficulty of competing with football for viewers and media dollars.
- The review is guided by three principles — scarcity, simplicity and parity — with an aim to connect the regular season to a clearer postseason.
- Rolapp emphasized strengthening the tour’s “middle class,” signaling a shift away from no‑cut, limited‑field signature events that restrict playing opportunities.
- Early steps are already in motion for 2026 with fewer fully exempt cards and smaller fields reported, as players like Justin Thomas publicly back Rolapp’s approach.
