The PGA Tour will return to action with the 2023 Fortinet Championship, scheduled to take place from September 14 to 17 at the Silverado Country Club in California's Napa Valley. This event marks the beginning of the first of seven fall tournaments for the PGA Tour as it transitions back to a calendar-year schedule in 2024.
The 2023 Fortinet Championship and the other fall tournaments present an opportunity for players ranked beyond the 70th place in the FedEx Cup standings to secure their PGA Tour cards for the upcoming season.
The top 125 players in the FedEx Cup standings by the end of 2023 will secure their cards for the 2024 season.
Venue
The Silverado Resorts and Spa-North Course is a par 72, 7,123-yard course. The North Course has previously hosted many events, such as the Kaiser International Open Invitational from 1968 to 1976, the Anheuser-Busch Golf Classic from 1977 through 1980, and the Fortinet Championship since 2014.
Purse
The purse size of the 155-player field event will be $8,400,000, 5% more than last year's edition. The winner will take home $1,512,000. Max Homa is the two-time defending champion at the Silverado Country Club. Last year, he grabbed $1.44 million after beating Danny Willett by one stroke.
