2013 PGA Tour explained
The 2013 PGA Tour was the 98th season of the PGA Tour, the main professional golf tour in the United States. It was also the 45th season since separating from the PGA of America, and the seventh edition of the FedEx Cup.
Changes for 2013
The season ran from January to September, the shorter-than-usual schedule aiding in the transition from the long-running January–December schedule to the new wraparound October–September schedule. It was the last season to be held entirely in one calendar year until 2024; the 2013–14 season would begin in October 2013.
