The PGA Tour season, the meat of the PGA Tour season at least, is over. Golf fans have already suffered through a week without any PGA Tour event at all, and some have to be asking just what is left to keep their attention after the four major championships on the men’s tour and the FedEx Cup playoffs are in the rearview mirror.
While the old adage that the PGA Tour never seems to end isn’t quite true anymore, there is still plenty of golf to keep fans entertained. For some fans, they will shift their attention to college football and the NFL on weekends, while sneaking in some golf viewing here and there.
Don’t be convinced that what happens between now and what should be two Tiger Woods appearances in December is golf that doesn’t mean a thing, though.

The United States hasn’t been very good in the Solheim Cup in recent years, losing in 2019 and 2021 and tying with Europe in 2023. That means the last U.S. victory in the matches came in 2017. Perhaps the Americans can turn that around this weekend with a team that seems stronger than the Europeans. Captain Stacy Lewis certainly would love to get her U.S. team back in the winner’s circle.
