Rory McIlroy makes his 2025 PGA Tour debut this week at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. This comes on the heels of his TGL debut and also his season opener on the DP World Tour, which took place a couple weeks ago.

Rory McIlroy will be making his PGA Tour season debut this week, but Pebble Beach is not the golf course to deploy him. Pebble is one of the least driver-heavy golf courses on the PGA Tour, and it consistently mitigates McIlroy’s advantage off the tee, which properly explains his porous 66th-place finish at this event last year.

Rory McIlroy said Tuesday he understands how the golf consumer might be fatigued with all the different forms of the game that now exist and even suggested lessening the number of events on the PGA Tour could help.

Rory McIlroy said there’s space for different golf products but expressed concern for the game becoming overexposed.

Rory McIlroy believes that golf fans could become "fatigued" by the wealth of options available to them and suggests there are "definitely too many" events on the current PGA Tour schedule.

Rory McIlroy is cutting back on the number of PGA Tour events in which he’ll compete this year. He wouldn’t mind seeing the tour make more cuts of its own, including the number of tournaments it conducts.
