ISCO Championship, 10-13 July
The tournament was organized by the PGA Tour in 2015 as an alternative to the Scottish Open and was known as the Barbasol Championship until 2024. In 2025, the golfers will meet at the Keene Trace Golf Club in Kentucky and compete for a 4,000,000 prize pool.
The Open Championship, 17-20 July
The British Open is the oldest and most famous golf competition worldwide. Founded back in 1860, the tournament welcomes not only professional players but also amateurs, who can get there by qualification or invitation. The winner receives The Golf Champion Trophy, gold medal, prize money, and a guaranteed entry to multiple competitions scheduled for the subsequent years. The Open will take place at the Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland, and we will see a lot of big names there this year.
Barracuda Championship, 17-20 July
The event had been known as the Reno-Tahoe Open until it became sponsored by the Barracuda Networks in 2014. Held by the PGA Tour, the 2025 tournament edition will take place at the Tahoe Mountain Club in California and will have a purse of $4,000,000.
3M Open, 24-27 July
The 3M Open is another professional competition on the PGA Tour. It has been held annually since 2019, bringing together 156 best golfers at the TPC Twin Cities in Minnesota. The winner gets a share of an impressive 8,400,000 prize pool.
Wyndham Championship, 31 July – 3 August
The tournament was established in 1938, which makes it one of the oldest golf competitions in the US. It was originally called the Greater Greensboro Open after the city where it’s hosted. The event is held at the Sedgefield Country Club and has a purse of 8,200,000.
FedEx St. Jude Championship, 7-10 August
It’s the first competition included in the FedExCup Playoffs. The tournament partners with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, hence the name. However, it was first called the Westchester Classic and hosted in NY. In 2021, the event was relocated to the TPC Southwind in Tennessee. The prize fund is 20,000,000.
BMW Championship, 14-17 August
The BMW Championship is the second playoff event for the FedExCup. The tournament was founded in 2007 by the Western Golf Association and soon became one of the most important competitions on the PGA Tour. Just like the FedEx St. Jude Championship, the tournament has a 20,000,000 money prize.
Tour Championship, 21-24 August
It’s the final competition of the FedExCup Playoffs set to be hosted at the East Lake Golf Club in Georgia. The PGA Tour has abandoned the starting-strokes format for this season, so we will see all 30 players beginning the event at even par, making it easier to follow. The prize money will probably reach $25,000,000.
Procore Championship, 11-14 September
The tournament marks the start of the FedExCup Fall Series. It includes 144 golfers, both raising talents and established PGA Tour stars. The Procore Championship will be hosted at the Silverado Resort, and the purse is $6,000,000.
Sanderson Farms Championship, 2-5 October
The Championship has a long history, as it was established in 1968 as part of the PGA Tour. Over the years, the tournament had several sponsors (Deposit Guaranty, Farm Bureau, and Viking) until Sanderson Farms signed a sponsorship agreement in 2013. What sets the Championship apart is that it donates money to statewide charities. Players get nice cash rewards as well since the purse is $6,000,000
Baycurrent Classic, 9-12 October
The tournament was earlier known as the Zozo Championship due to the sponsorship of the Japanese brand Zozo. The event was established in 2019 as part of the PGA Tour and Japan Golf Tour. The matches take place at the Yokohama Country Club in Japan, and the total money prize is very generous – $8,500,000.
