Notes from the organizer: Firstly, thanks to anyone who took part in last year’s PGA tour. Hopefully you enjoyed it enough to return for another crack.
After giving it some thought, I’ll be making some changes for 2025.
Because we don’t have to worry about the PGA / LIV divide on Apterous (and before Andy kills my tour by setting up his own LIV rival tour ;)), I’ve decided to try and take the best of both worlds to add more competitive elements this season.
So - we’ll fuse the PGA / LIV together in the following way.
- 12 events across the season.
- ‘Individual’ & ‘Team’ scoring at each event.
- ‘Individual’ & ‘Team’ rankings
- 5 x PGA Events - 4 x Majors & The Players Championship, each played over a 72 hole format.
- 6 x LIV-style events played over a 54 hole format.
- 1 x The Ryder Cup (no ranking points).
Individual rankings / scoring will remain largely unchanged to 2024 with some potential tweaks to points.
The Team element will work as follows: As well as playing individually, you will be grouped in X teams of 4 players for the season. Similar to LIV, the best 2 scorers in your team in the early rounds of each tournament will count towards your tournament total, with the final round counting the best 3 players. It’ll all become clearer to understand (for both you and me) once we get going!
LIV Teams will compete in both LIV and PGA events, so team scoring will take place at every tournament.
Finally, as it’s a Ryder Cup year, each player will be assigned either a European or USA status at the start of the season and the top 12 ranked individuals from each region will be selected for September’s showcase team event.
EVENTS:
LIV - Adelaide (Feb)
LIV - Hong Kong (Mar)
PGA - Players’ Championship (Mar)
PGA - The Masters (Apr)
LIV - Korea (May)
PGA - PGA Championship (May)
PGA - The US Open (Jun)
LIV - Dallas (Jun)
PGA - The Open (Jul)
LIV - UK (Jul)
LIV - Chicago (Aug)
RYDER CUP (Sept - top 12 players from each region)
As with real-life - scoring in the PGA & Ryder Cup will be more traditional, with some gameplay quirks, inserted into the LIV events to add some fun / variety.
Everyone is welcome, so sign up if you fancy it.
