Are your club grips the correct size? Here’s how to tell, Top 100 teacher says

What are PGA Tour playoff rules for tiebreakers?

PGA Tour’s New Tiebreaker Rules

The PGA Tour has revised its playoff format to increase excitement and conclude tournaments sooner. The sudden-death format is now used for all playoffs, except for the FedEx Cup. If players are tied after the first playoff hole, they will continue to play until a winner is determined.

This format change is designed to create more drama and suspense, as well as reduce the length of playoffs. The previous format, which allowed for multiple 18-hole playoff rounds, could sometimes drag on for several hours or even days.

The new format is sure to generate excitement among both players and fans. It will also help to ensure that tournaments are completed in a timely manner.
