The race is on for 2025 tour cards.
The PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Fall series starts Thursday with the first of eight events. These will mostly serve as opportunities for those who didn’t make the top 70 in FedEx Cup points – and therefore didn’t qualify for the FedEx Cup Playoffs – to secure status for the 2025 season.
There is likely to be a drop in star power for many of these events but some big names will appear on the tee sheets over the next 11 weeks. For example, Sahith Theegala and Max Homa are in the renamed Procore Championship (formerly the Fortinet Championship) at Silverado Resort in Napa, California.
The fall tournaments have all the perks: a two-year PGA Tour exemption for winning (along with 500 FedEx Cup points). Also, winners get into the 2025 Sentry, the 2025 Players Championship and majors that reserve spots for Tour winners.
The top 70 from last year have 2025 status and spots 71 through 125 will be determined over the course of these eight fall events. Further, the players who finished 51st to 70th are still competing for spots in the 2025 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-am and the 2025 Genesis Invitational, both signature events.
For those who finish 126th to 150th, they will have conditional status and can improve on that at PGA Tour Q School.
