As every sports organization in the world attempts to compete with the NFL during the fall and winter months, rumors are swirling regarding the PGA Tour’s stance on the issue.
As it stands, the Tour season starts at the Sony Open in mid-January, directly coinciding with the NFL playoffs. Unlike most sports, the Tour has an extremely long season, lasting nearly year-round.
But last week, U.S. Ryder Cup player Harris English teased that the PGA Tour is in talks to shorten their season and start after the Super Bowl, preferably late-February.
“The talk of the Tour potentially starting after the Super Bowl is a pretty good thing,” said English. “We can’t really compete with football.”
