The PGA Tour has revealed its 16-member Player Advisory Council for 2026, featuring newcomers like Lucas Glover and veterans such as Scottie Scheffler. Glover and Adam Scott will compete in an election for PAC chairman, with the winner joining the Policy Board from 2027 to 2030. The council advises on policy changes to represent player interests.
The PGA Tour announced on January 26, 2026, the composition of its Player Advisory Council (PAC) for the upcoming year. This 16-player body serves as a consulting group that reviews and recommends modifications to the PGA Tour Policy Board on behalf of the membership.
The full list of PAC members includes: Sam Burns, Corey Conners, Harris English, Lucas Glover, Brian Harman, Charley Hoffman, Max Homa, Hank Lebioda, Max McGreevy, Alex Noren, Scottie Scheffler, Adam Scott, Neal Shipley, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and Gary Woodland.
Four players are joining the PAC for the first time: Lucas Glover, Hank Lebioda, Alex Noren, and rookie Neal Shipley. Returning members from 2025 are Burns, Harman, Hoffman, Homa, McGreevy, Scheffler, Thomas, and Woodland. Notably, Jordan Spieth is back after previous stints, including as PAC chairman in 2018 and a player director from 2019 to 2021, as well as replacing Rory McIlroy on the board through February 2025.
A key development is the election for PAC chairman between Glover and Scott, selected by the Player Directors. The voting membership will decide, and the victor will serve a four-year term on the Policy Board starting in 2027, coinciding with the end of Scott's current term in 2026. Glover has been vocal about PGA Tour directions, such as the signature-event model introduced a few years ago.
Players departing the PAC from last year include Eric Cole, Trevor Cone, Rickie Fowler, Kevin Kisner, Maverick McNealy, Keith Mitchell, Seamus Power, and Brandt Snedeker. Results of the chairman election and PAC subcommittees will be revealed later.
