Players who were able to play in some PGA events without a tour card for the 2019/20 season will have their eligibility exemption carried over to the 2020/21 campaign.
There have been 13 events cancelled or postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, with the tour set to resume on June 8 at the Charles Schwab Challenge.
“This eligibility update, contingent upon the planned restart of the season at the Charles Schwab Challenge the week of June 8, was deemed the best and most equitable solution for the membership at large after research by our competitions department and significant conversations with the Policy Board and Player Advisory Council.”
The qualification for the Fedex Cup play-offs, which were won by Rory McIlroy last year, have also been adjusted.
