s the world continues to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, we have remained steadfast in our commitment to the communities in which we play— where we are invited guests each week—and health and safety remain our No. 1 priority. There have been no shortcuts for our organization, and the cooperation, guidance and support we have received from all constituents—especially our players—has been nothing short of phenomenal throughout. These groups are the reason we were among the first professional sports leagues to return to competition last summer, and they are also responsible for the upward trajectory the TOUR and the game of golf as a whole are experiencing. With that as a backdrop, we are extremely proud of what the PGA TOUR has accomplished over the last 12 months, both on and off the course. Highlights include:

 Remarkable competitive friction from the world’s best players on a weekly basis, starting with our Return to Golf in June 2020 (with two wins and a runner-up in the three FedExCup Playoffs events, Dustin Johnson was simply dominating as he was crowned the 2020 FedExCup champion);  A reimagined 2020-21 campaign, a Super Season of 50 events culminating with the 15th edition of the FedExCup Playoffs;  Innovative solutions in creating positive charitable impact in our tournament communities;  A new focus on affecting real change in the areas of social and racial injustice with a $100 million, 10-year pledge to these efforts;  A strategic partnership with the European Tour;  Record engagement and consumption from our fans across every media platform;  The gradual and responsible return of spectators to PGA TOUR events.
