Lucas Glover, a longtime critic of the PGA Tour, has been elected as the 2026 Player Advisory Council chairman by the Tour's voting membership. This marks the first time the 46-year-old, a six-time Tour winner and 2009 U.S. Open champion, has agreed to serve on the council after declining the role 10 previous times. Following his chairmanship, Glover will join the PGA Tour Policy Board for a four-year term from 2027 to 2030.
The PGA Tour will begin publicizing speed-of-play statistics for Korn Ferry Tour players next month. The data, including average stroke times by shot type, follows a decision by the PGA Tour Policy Board last November. The move aims to provide context to fans and support players labeled as slow.
