The 2025 PGA Tour season concluded with a major shake-up, as several well-known golfers failed to secure their playing privileges for the upcoming 2026 season. Sami Välimäki’s historic win at the RSM Classic took the spotlight, but behind the scenes, dozens of players were battling for their tour status.
The PGA Tour’s membership tightening meant only the top 100 in the FedEx Cup retained full status, leaving many seasoned pros in a precarious position. While some, like Max Homa and Billy Horschel, maintain their cards through past winner exemptions, others like Will Zalatoris will rely on medical exemptions.
This video highlights 12 notable golfers who missed the cut, including Matt Wallace, Beau Hossler, and Joel Dahmen, who will now have conditional status. We also delve into the stories of veterans like Matt Kuchar, Brandt Snedeker, and Zach Johnson, who are considering their next moves.
Join us as we explore the reasons behind these players’ losses, their potential plans for the future, and the impact this shake-up will have on the PGA Tour landscape.
