Thanks for suggestions on next season's Golf Series (as event dates and sequence are changing).

The 2019 Fedex Tour Championship revamp announced this week may also affect the Fiso competition.

PGA TOUR announces new FedExCup Playoffs format

Starting with next year’s event at East Lake, there will be only one leaderboard. No separate FedExCup points standings. And on that Sunday afternoon, there will be one champion crowned. One winner standing on the 18th green, holding up one trophy – the FedExCup.

Credit a new scoring system called FedExCup Starting Strokes related to the FedExCup standings. Players will start the opening round with scores between 10 under to even par.

It will replace the system currently in use this week (and since 2009) in which FedExCup points are reset going into East Lake.

The bonus program will provide additional drama to the regular season finale and also place a greater premium on full-season performance. Add in previously announced changes to the PGA TOUR schedule – most notably the move of THE PLAYERS Championship to March, the PGA Championship to May, the reduction of FedExCup Playoffs events from four to three, and the earlier finish prior to Labor Day -- and next season promises to be the most rewarding and intriguing that players and fans have experienced.

Here’s how the points system will work in next season’s FedExCup Playoffs:
The top 125 players in points after the Wyndham Championship will qualify for the Playoffs -- that hasn’t changed.

Since there is one less Playoffs event, the progressive cut will be adjusted. Only the top 70 after THE NORTHERN TRUST will advance to the second Playoffs event, which will now be the BMW Championship. Then the top 30 after the BMW will make the TOUR Championship.

That’s when the FedExCup Starting Strokes kicks in – and the points go away.
The No. 1 player in the FedExCup standings will receive a 10-stroke head start going into East Lake. In other words, he will tee off for the first round at 10 under.
The No. 2 player will start at 8 under. The No. 3 player starts at 7 under; the No. 4 player starts at 6 under; the No. 5 player starts at 5 under. Players ranked 6-10 start at 4 under; players 11-15 start at 3 under; players 16-20 start at 2 under; players 21-25 start at 1 under; and players 26-30 start at even par.

Once the TOUR Championship begins, a player’s score will reflect both the tournament and the FedExCup standings. That should be easier for fans – and players – to follow.

What a load of sh*te!

I mean, I'm not sure I agree with this change! anyway, I think including this tournament with the new arrangement might not be viable...

where scores are level, tie-breaker is lower rating; then fewer transfers; then earlier entry

Did you see JT before the tour champs basically saying this but trying to be very tactful? It was brilliant.

where scores are level, tie-breaker is lower rating; then fewer transfers; then earlier entry

You may request up to two team transfers before Round Three tees off on Sat.
For info, this was at 17:15 BST last season.
