The PGA Tour's advisory council has proposed several changes that if approved by the PGA Tour policy board would take effect starting with the 2026 season.
Per ESPN's Mark Schlabach and Paolo Uggetti, the proposed changes include reducing the maximum number of players in a starting field for tournaments from 156 to 144; reducing the number of players who maintain their Tour card and full status from the top 125 finishers in the FedEx Cup to the top 100; reduce the number of Tour cards awarded annually to players on the Korn Ferry Tour from 30 to 20, and capping the Q-school cards at five.
