PGA Tour provides international members with details of new 8-event series

Professional golfers who compete on the PGA Tour’s international tours received good news Friday.

The Tour confirmed via email, which was obtained by GolfChannel.com, that it will conduct a series of eight tournaments, beginning in August, in order to provide playing opportunities to members of the Mackenzie Tour, PGA Tour Latinoamerica and PGA Tour China – all tours that had their seasons either canceled or altered because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 54-hole tournaments will feature 144-player fields, 36-hole cuts to the top 55 and ties, and minimum $100,000 purses with a winner’s share of $16,000. The entry fee per event is $675.
