Jim Furyk eyeing eventual transition to PGA Tour Champions

Jim Furyk is still competitive on the PGA Tour, but the 17-time winner is beginning to consider his transition to the senior circuit.

The then-48-year-old finished runner-up to Rory McIlroy last year at The Players Championship and at 49 years old managed to advance to the BMW Championship, the second leg of the FedExCup Playoffs.

Coming off four straight missed cuts heading into the Tour's pandemic-prompted break, he returned to play last week at the Charles Schwab Challenge, tying for 49th.

Speaking with reporters on Tuesday at the RBC Heritage at Harbour Town, site of his most recent Tour win in 2015, Furyk, who turned 50 last month, offered details on his future plans.
