PGA Tour live

Through the Golf Post Live Blog you can follow all results on the PGA Tour live. Alongside the DP World Tour (formerly the European Tour), the PGA Tour is the world’s largest tournament series in men’s professional golf. The tour attracts prize money that is just as high as the level of the international elite that comes together at quite a few of the tournaments. The annual highlights of the season are the four major tournaments (co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour), the Players Championship and the final FedExCup playoffs, which conclude the season every year. Signature events were created for this purpose. These include the three FedExCup playoff tournaments, The Sentry, the invitational tournaments (Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational and Memorial Tournament) and four other tournaments, which can change annually.

The PGA Tour has gained its importance primarily through its ability to retain top players through the attractiveness of the tournaments and the size of the prize money, which has risen steadily in recent years. The FedExCup is the American equivalent of the European Race to Dubai, with players collecting points throughout the season until the FedExCup winner is crowned in three tournaments in August. The FedExCup playoffs consist of three tournaments: the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the BMW Championship and the final Tour Championship. The winner of the Tour Championship also becomes the winner of the FedEx Cup and secures the record jackpot of 25 million US dollars.

The DP World Tour season continues to gather pace, with numerous tournaments already completed. In the latest event, Shane Lowry emerged victorious, securing his position among the top contenders. Rory McIlroy currently leads the pack in the Race to Dubai rankings, with an impressive performance throughout the season. As part of the United Kingdom’s contribution to the sport, there are currently 20 English players holding spots in the top 120 of the Race to Dubai rankings.

Top Englishmen Perform in Race to Dubai


Three English players have made significant strides in the Race to Dubai rankings this season. Tommy Fleetwood, with a triumph to his name, currently sits at 16th with 625.6 points after participating in two events. Laurie Canter has gathered 496.25 points from six events and Jordan Smith holds 482.85 points from eight events, with Andy Sullivan following up closely at 24th place.

Fierce Competition at the Top


McIlroy remains the frontrunner in the Race to Dubai, having amassed 1596 points from just two events, including one notable victory. Close on his heels are Japan’s Rikuya Hoshino with 1258.1 points from ten events including a win, and Sweden’s Jesper Svensson who has collected 1160.34 points also from ten tournaments and one win. Adrian Meronk from Poland, with 1023.4 points from four events and Chile’s Joaquin Niemann with 966.73 points from three events, also claiming a win, round out the top five.

How the DP World Tour Race to Dubai works

The Race to Dubai is the season ranking of the DP World Tour (former European Tour). The top 60 players in the Race to Dubai ranking are allowed to take part in the final play-off tournament of the former European Tour at the end of the season. The season ranking also determines who is allowed to play on the DP World Tour the following year. At each tournament, the players who make the cut collect points. The total number of points awarded at a tournament depends on the value of the event. Major tournaments earn the most points. For winning a DP World Tour tournament, the winner receives at least 460 points and a good 300,000 euros.
