PGA Tour U changes: No. 1 to get extra year of PGA Tour status; regional rule revoked

Performance benefits continue to increase for the top finishers in PGA Tour University.

On the heels of last fall’s announcement that the No. 1 player in the final ranking would receive a PGA Tour card for the remainder of the Tour season, the PGA Tour revealed Monday that it is expanding that perk to include an extra full season of PGA Tour status. So, this year’s No. 1 player following the NCAA Championship would earn a Tour card for the remainder of 2023 and 2024, playing out of the same category as the Korn Ferry Tour and DP World Tour points winners while being subject to reshuffles.
