On this episode of The Fried Egg Golf Podcast, Andy Johnson and Joseph LaMagna discuss the PGA Tour's new competitive model, unveiled last week by Brian Rolapp and Tiger Woods. Andy first provides a general overview of the new structure that splits the Tour into two distinct "series," with promotion and relegation between them. Then, Joseph joins him for an in-depth breakdown of all the details before the two point out potential landmines that the Tour needs to fix before these plans go into play in 2028.
