“On the heels of the success of the inaugural PGA TOUR Americas season, we are thrilled to continue building on that momentum in 2025,” said Korn Ferry Tour President Alex Baldwin, who oversees PGA TOUR Pathways, which includes the Korn Ferry Tour, PGA TOUR Americas, PGA TOUR University and PGA TOUR Q-School presented by Korn Ferry. “We have added some exceptional golf courses to the 2025 schedule, and we remain confident PGA TOUR Americas will identify and prepare golf’s emerging stars as players continue on their journey to the Korn Ferry Tour and ultimately the PGA TOUR.”
The 2025 PGA TOUR Americas schedule features two segments – the Latin America Swing (Segment I) and the North America Swing (Segment II). The Latin America Swing includes six events in Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico and Colombia, while the North America Swing is comprised of 10 events – nine in Canada and one in the United States – and culminates with the Fortinet Cup Championship at Morgan Creek Golf Course in Surrey, British Columbia.
“We are delighted to continue our partnership with PGA TOUR Americas as the season long cup sponsor, culminating in the Fortinet Cup Championship,” said Marc Asturias, Vice President of Marketing and Field CISO for Government at Fortinet for Latin America, the Caribbean, and Canada. “This year, we are excited to expand the Tour to include Cordoba, Argentina, and Mexico City, Mexico and to host the season finale in the greater Vancouver area, home to one of our major research and development centers. With over 24 years of leadership in the cybersecurity industry, Fortinet remains committed to bringing together our partners, customers, and communities to celebrate emerging golf talent, share the latest technology trends, and support local communities across the Americas.”
PGA TOUR Americas membership is comprised of players from the PGA TOUR Americas 2024 season and participants in the 2024 Final Stage of PGA TOUR Q-School presented by Korn Ferry, as well as players from PGA TOUR Americas Q-School (to be contested between the two segments in 2025) and players finishing No. 11-25 in the PGA TOUR University Class of 2025.
