PGA Tour "willing to change" new schedule amid ongoing LIV Golf conflict

The PGA Tour are "willing to change" their newly implemented elevated event schedule according to one of the American-based circuit's biggest names Xander Schauffele.

The Tour implemented the changes at the beginning of the 2023 campaign, giving 17 tournaments 'elevated' or 'designated' status. The upgrade has seen the 17 selected events receiving an increase in prize funds, with an average of £16 million ($20m) on offer at each.

The new schedule was seemingly put in place in response to the threat of their rivals LIV Golf, who have been able to lure in a whole host of Tour players with mega-money signing fees and prize pots.
