And what’s a major without Tiger Woods? The Big Cat struggled this season, b... 

Thanks to the global pandemic, the PGA Tour had to reimagine its schedule. Six major tournaments will be played this season with the first taking place this week.

There is no offseason on the PGA Tour. Just a few days after the season-ending TOUR Championship, the 2020-21 season gets underway from wine country with the Safeway Open taking placing at Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa, Calif.

The return of five-time winner Tiger Woods to competitive tournament play only strengthens an already stellar field at the Memorial Tournament.

The PGA Tour stays in Dublin, Ohio, ahead of this week’s Memorial Tournament, which features the return of Tiger Woods to competitive play for the first time since February.
