The PGA Tour recently unveiled its 2025 schedule, which showcased a few notable updates and shed light on the ongoing discussions between the tour and Saudi-backed LIV Golf. The schedule release indicated a potential separation between the two entities until at least 2026, with PGA Tour Commissioner emphasizing that talks with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia are intricate but progressing positively.
One significant alteration in the schedule involved reverting the Memorial and the RBC Canadian Open to their previous dates, with the Memorial set for May 29 through June 1, followed by the Canadian Open and then the U.S. Open at Oakmont. This adjustment aimed to create a more balanced spacing between key events, addressing concerns raised by Memorial host Jack Nicklaus in the past.
