De PGA Tour organiseert wedstrijden voor golfprofessionals in de Verenigde Staten. Het hoofdkantoor is in Ponte Vedra Beach in Florida.
De PGA Tour organiseert onder andere:
- de PGA Tour, wereldwijd de Tour met het hoogste niveau
- de Champions Tour voor golfprofessionals ouder dan 50 jaar
- de Nationwide Tour, vergelijkbaar met de European Challenge Tour. De top 20 aan het eind van het jaar kwalificeren zich voor deelname aan de PGA Tour van het komende seizoen; er zijn ruim 30 toernooien.
Samen met de Europese PGA Tour organiseert de PGA Tour om het jaar de Ryder Cup, een toernooi waaraan een Amerikaans en een Europees team deelnemen waarbij de deelnemers om de eer spelen, niet om prijzengeld.
De Amerikaanse PGA Tour heeft zich in 1968 afgescheiden van de PGA of America, de voornaamste organisatie voor clubprofessionals. De PGA of America organiseert onder andere de PGA Championship en de Senior PGA Kampioenschappen.
De dames professionals hebben een eigen organisatie, de LPGA Tour (Ladies PGA Tour).
