PGA Tour Fall Series

The PGA Tour Fall Series is a series of events on the PGA Tour that covers the end of the calendar year.

This series was created in 2007 as part of the reorganization of the entire tour schedule. The new structure includes a regular season and the FedEx Cup playoffs, which will determine the season champion. This slate of tournaments had the working title "Quest for the Card" before the PGA Tour finalized the name.

The Fall Series is a group of seven events that will determine who joins the 30 FedEx Cup finalists in receiving full-season exemptions to the following year's tournaments. These will be the golfers who did not qualify for the FedEx Cup finals, but finish in the top 125 on the money list at the end of the Fall Series. Golfers finishing outside the top 125 can only enter the following year's tournaments based on other exemptions or through qualifying, "e.g." "Q-school."

In 2007, the Fall Series began the week after the final FedEx Cup event, The Tour Championship. Starting in 2008, the first event will take place the week before The Tour Championship. The Fall Series will then take a week off before resuming with its final six events.
