Further, the Tour will dole out an additional $US145 million ($A206m) in bonus money, including $US75 million ($A107m) for the FedExCup.

The announcement comes a week after the renegade LIV Golf Series announced a 14-event schedule that will award $US405 million ($A575m) in prize money in 2023.

"We've heard from our fans and the overwhelming sentiment was that they wanted more consequences for both the FedExCup regular season and the Playoffs, and to further strengthen events that traditionally feature top players competing head-to-head," PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said in a statement.

"We feel strongly we've accomplished all of these objectives and more, creating a cadence of compelling drama for every tournament throughout the season."

The PGA Tour's 44-event regular-season slate kicks off September 15 at the Fortinet Championship in Napa, California. It will conclude with the FedExCup Playoffs, which will include just the top 70 players – down from 125 – for the first event, the St. Jude Championship.
