List of members -- Full members
Players earn their tour membership either by winning tournaments, placing highly in the FedEx Cup rankings, promotion from the Web.com Tour, medical exemption, or via one time exemptions for reaching milestones. For the 2019 season, 2016 Masters winner Danny Willett returned after concentrating on the European Tour in the previous season. Other notable joiners apart from Web.com Tour graduates include Joaquín Niemann and Kiradech Aphibarnrat. Among those to lose their full PGA Tour membership was 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell, but he subsequently regained full membership on April 1, 2019 after winning the Corales Puntacana Resort and Club Championship.
