PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Florida – The PGA TOUR announced today the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour schedule, the 36th season in the Tour’s history, which will include 25 events across seven countries and 15 states. The season will begin January 11-14 with The Bahamas Golf Classic at Atlantis Paradise Island and conclude October 8-11 with the Korn Ferry Tour Championship presented by Virginia’s Richmond Region.

“As the primary pathway for reaching the PGA TOUR, the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour schedule underscores our ongoing commitment to growth and opportunity,” said Korn Ferry Tour President Alex Baldwin. “With two exciting new tournaments, new host venues and a refreshed cadence leading into the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, this season represents both continuity and innovation for our members and fans.”

The 2026 schedule will feature 10 televised events on Golf Channel, with all four Korn Ferry Tour Finals events once again being televised. The AdventHealth Championship will be broadcast for the first time, in addition to shifting to the final regular season event before the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, elevating its impact on the race for PGA TOUR cards.

The season will culminate with the four-event Korn Ferry Tour Finals, which will see an adjustment in field sizes for the final three tournaments of the year, to align with previously announced adjustments to the eligibility system and Priority Ranking for 2027. The Simmons Bank Open for the Snedeker Foundation will again feature the top 156 players in the Korn Ferry Tour Points List, before the 132-player Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship and the 100-player Compliance Solutions Championship. Players who finish 61-100 on the Korn Ferry Tour Points List will retain conditional membership for the 2027 Korn Ferry Tour season.

The season will conclude with the top 60 players teeing it up at the Korn Ferry Tour Championship presented by Virginia’s Richmond Region, which welcomes a new presenting sponsor and a new venue (The Federal Club in Glen Allen, Virginia). The presenting sponsorship group is comprised of four regional entities including the Henrico Sports & Entertainment Authority, the Henrico Economic Development Authority, Richmond Region Tourism and the Virginia Tourism Corporation. At the conclusion of the Korn Ferry Tour Championship, the top 20 players on the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour Points List will earn PGA TOUR membership for the 2027 season, while finishers 21-60 will be fully exempt on the Korn Ferry Tour for the 2027 season.

In addition to the changes to the season finale tournament, the Korn Ferry Tour will welcome two new events to the 2026 schedule, further expanding the Tour’s footprint in the southeastern United States and the Texas Panhandle. The Colonial Life Charity Classic will make its debut May 14-17 at The Woodcreek Club in Elgin, South Carolina, while the OccuNet Classic presented by Amarillo National Bank will be contested June 11-14 at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, on the club’s La Paloma Course.

The 2026 schedule will see Blue Federal Credit Union, presenting sponsor of the Korn Ferry Tour’s event at TPC Colorado the last four years, transition to title sponsor of The Blue Championship (July 6-12).

The BMW Charity Pro-Am presented by TD SYNNEX will introduce The Country Club of Spartanburg as its secondary host course, while the Astara Golf Championship presented by Mastercard will be played exclusively on Country Club de Bogota – Lagos after previously being contested on two courses.
