The 2019 Korn Ferry Tour was the 30th season of the top developmental tour for the PGA Tour in men's golf. The season began under the Web.com Tour name but changed in June to the Korn Ferry Tour.[1] The season ran from January 13 to September 2 and consists of 27 official money tournaments, four of them played outside of the United States.

Schedule

The table below shows the Korn Ferry Tour's 2019 schedule, which included five new tournaments.[2] The numbers in parentheses after winners' names show the player's total number of wins on the Korn Ferry Tour including that event. No one accumulates many wins on the Korn Ferry Tour because success at this level soon leads to promotion to the PGA Tour. Any player who wins three Korn Ferry Tour events in a season earns their PGA Tour card immediately.
