2026 Korn Ferry Tour schedule: Tournaments, dates, purses and venues

The Korn Ferry Tour logo


The 2026 Korn Ferry Tour schedule has been announced, with a 25-event docket that golf fans have been accustomed to seeing in recent years.

The most significant changes to the schedule are related to the Korn Ferry Tour Championship moving to the Richmond, Virginia, area from French Lick Resort in Indiana. The Compliance Solutions Championship in Oklahoma is the third event of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, played at The Patriot Golf Club. The Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship is the second leg, with 144 players. The Simmons Bank Open in Tennessee will kick off the playoffs with 156 players.

The Bahamas doubleheader to start the season has been extended through 2027, with Paradise Island hosting the opening event of the season at Atlantis Resort.

Standard purse events

The minimum purse on the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour is $1,000,000, which is an increase of $250,000 over the 2022 season and equal to the 2023, 2024 and 2025 seasons. The standardization of purses goes hand in hand with a tour that offers a standard 500 Korn Ferry Tour points to winners in every regular-season event.

The two new events in the United States are the Colonial Life Charity Classic in Elgin, South Carolina, and the OccuNet Classic in Amarillo, Texas. The Veritex Bank Championship, Price Cutter Charity Championship and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Wichita Open have exited the schedule.

International events

The 2026 schedule will feature 18 events in the United States, with seven played outside of the United States.

Korn Ferry Tour Finals

The Korn Ferry Tour schedule will conclude in October, with the Korn Ferry Tour Finals returning to four events. All four tournaments will have a $1.5 million purse, with 600 points are available to the winner.

The Korn Ferry Tour Finals no longer include players from the PGA Tour ranked Nos. 126-200 on the final FedEx Cup points list. It will only include Korn Ferry Tour players, looking to secure one of 30 total PGA Tour cards available in the season-long Korn Ferry Tour points race.
