PGA Tour players are expressing growing dissatisfaction through the circulation of a membership petition sent to members on Thursday. The petition, submitted by an anonymous group of players, is calling for a “special meeting” to address various issues within the tour, including the point allocation system and the reduced Player Impact Program budget for next year. According to the petition, the current point allocation system heavily favors signature events, awarding significantly more points for top finishes compared to traditional events. The players are seeking a substantial reduction in the point disparity before the upcoming signature events in January.

In addition to the point allocation, the petition is also calling for discussions on limited-field signature events, the Tour’s leadership, policy board, and player directors.
