In the
Pipeline
Ollie Schniederjans will try to
work his way back to the PGA
Tour through conditional status
on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2020.
THE 2020 KORN FERRY TOUR SCHEDULE
T
he PGA Tour’s top developmental circuit went through
a midseason name change in 2019, going from the
Web.com to the Korn Ferry Tour. The goal, though,
remains the same: Identify the top 25 players who will earn
their PGA Tour cards for the 2020-21 season, and 25 more that
will earn their cards through the Korn Ferry Tour playoffs. As
always, a player can earn an immediate battlefield promotion by
winning three events.
