Report: PGA Tour 'Tabling' Plans for Global Series with Purses Worth Up to $25M

The PGA is putting its plans for a global series on the backburner.

Mark Schlabach of ESPN reported the tour is "tabling" the idea of having three international events with $25 million prize purses after initially announcing the initiative in June.

The PGA will instead shift its focus to the 13 stateside events with "elevated" purses. The FedEx Cup playoff tournaments, Sentry Tournament of Champions, Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational, The Players, Memorial Tournament, WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play are currently locked in as yearly events set to get increased focus.

Four other events will be part of the plan on a rotational basis.
