PGA Tour Championship: New Format, Ongoing Debate | JQJO

The PGA Tour's Tour Championship format has undergone significant changes, abandoning the controversial staggered start system. This year, the event is a 72-hole tournament with 30 players competing for a $40 million prize. While players like Scottie Scheffler advocate for a format where winning the Tour Championship is a significant achievement, not simply a reflection of the season-long standings, the current system is a temporary solution, with the possibility of further alterations in the future. Debate continues over the optimal format, with match play and other alternatives discussed.
