The Simmons Bank Championship, a PGA Tour Champions event, will be held Oct. 21-27, 2024, at Pleasant Valley Country Club in Little Rock, officials announced Thursday during a news conference at the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame.

Established under a five-year agreement, the tournament will mark the first PGA Tour Champions event to be held in Arkansas and will be televised on the Golf Channel.

Tour President Miller Brady said the tournament will serve as the second round of the PGA Tour Champions’ annual Charles Schwab Cup playoffs. It will feature the top 54 players in the Charles Schwab Cup standings, with the top 36 finishers advancing to play in the final event of the season.

“It’s a crucial event in our schedule,” Brady said.
