The 2024 PGA Tour schedule will feature 12 designated events, Golfweek reported Thursday.

The tour returns to a calendar-year schedule and features 39 regular season tournaments plus eight more events in a post-playoffs fall series.

Per the report, only four of the dozen events with a designated status — featuring lucrative purses and limited fields — will include a 36-hole cut: the Players Championship, Genesis Invitational, Memorial Tournament and Arnold Palmer Invitational.

There will be no halfway cuts at the season-opening Sentry tournament, AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, RBC Heritage, Wells Fargo Championship, Travelers Championship or the three FedEx Cup Playoff events.

The Memorial reportedly will move to the week before the U.S. Open, instead of its traditional spot on the calendar two weeks ahead of the season’s third major.

According to the report, the schedule does not reflect any changes related to negotiations with the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund.

The first part of the 2024 schedule begins with the Sentry from Jan. 4-7 and ends with the Tour Championship from Aug. 29-Sept. 1.

The fall portion of the schedule launches Sept. 11-15 with the Fortinet Championship and concludes in December.

The dates for the majors include The Masters at Augusta, Ga., (April 11-14), the PGA Championship in Louisville, Ky. (May 16-19), the U.S. Open at Pinehurst, N.C. (June 13-16) and The Open Championship at Royal Troon in Scotland (July 18-21).

The official unveiling of the 2024 PGA Tour calendar is planned for Tuesday. Tour officials declined to comment on the Golfweek report.
