2025 PGA Tour Champions schedule features $69 million in prize money


There’s one event left in 2024 but on Wednesday, the PGA Tour Champions announced its schedule of tournaments in 2025, a slate that includes 25 regular-season events, three playoff stops and a record $69 million in prize money.

There’s one new tournament on the schedule next year, and that’s the James Hardie Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational in Boca Raton, Florida, April 4-6.

Another tournament is getting a new venue – the Steve Stricker co-designed TPC Wisconsin – and a new format, as the American Family Insurance Championship will become a two-man team event.

The 2025 season starts once again at the Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai, Jan. 16-18 in Ka’upulehu-Kona, Hawaii, the 29th consecutive year that tour has started its season at Hualalai Golf Course.

The Charles Schwab Cup Championship will again be the season finale, Nov. 13-16, at Phoenix Country Club.

PGA Tour Champions majors in 2025

There are five majors on the circuit. The first two are on back-to-back weekends, as are the second two.

Dates Major Host Location
May 15-18 Regions Tradition Greystone Golf & Country Club Birmingham, Alabama
May 21-25 Senior PGA Championship Congressional Country Club Bethesda, Maryland
June 19-22 Kaulig Companies Championship Firestone Country Club Akron, Ohio
June 26-29 U.S. Senior Open The Broadmoor Golf Club Colorado Springs, Colorado
July 24-27 Senior Open Championship Sunningdale Golf Club Berkshire, England

In 2025, the Kaulig Companies Championship and the U.S. Senior Open will flip positions on the schedule. Also, KitchenAid is no longer the title sponsor of the Senior PGA.

20 states, 3 countries, $69 million

The Champions tour will visit three other countries – Morocco, England, Canada – and 20 states during the 2025 schedule.

The nearly $70 million in prize money is the highest in the circuits’s 45 years.

“As we prepare for a thrilling finale to our 2024 season, I’m excited to share the 2025 PGA Tour Champions schedule,” said Miller Brady, president of the PGA Tour Champions. “Next season promises even greater heights for the Champions Tour, as we continue to build on the tremendous foundation already in place. The partnership we share with our title sponsors and tournaments is second to none and their support can be seen across our Tour, from the increased purses to the charitable support in the local communities where we play.”

PGA Champions Tour on TV

All 28 events will be on Golf Channel in 2025 with two events, the Senior PGA and the Senior U.S. Open, will be on NBC on the weekends. Most tournaments will also be streamed on Peacock.
