PGA Tour announces changes to eligibility rules for Q-School and PGA Tour U

The PGA Tour has detailed significant changes to eligibility for Q-School and PGA Tour U starting in 2027 and beyond. Q-School will now occur earlier in the fall, shifting the traditional final stage dates, and top finishers will earn entry into the Last Chance Series. NCAA golfers face decisions as new regulations allow five seasons of play over five years. The leading player in PGA Tour U will gain a year and a half of Championship eligibility by 2028. In addition, Korn Ferry Tour changes will enhance its status, with the top players earning Challenger status for the following year and opportunities for enhanced competition.
