The PGA Tour released its 2010 schedule on Tuesday with a full slate of 37 regular-season events before the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

"We are very pleased to announce our schedule through the 2010 FedEx Cup season," said PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem. "Despite difficult economic times we once again have a full slate of events and look forward to yet another exciting season for the PGA Tour."

The FedEx Cup season begins with the SBS Championship in Kapalua, Hawaii, from January 7-10. The regular season ends with the Wyndham Championship August 19-22.

The four Playoff events remain the same with the The Barclays leading off August 26-29, followed by the Deutsche Bank Championship, BMW Championship, a week off, then the Tour Championship from September 23-26.

The PGA Tour will release the Fall Series lineup at a later date.

There were some changes made to the 2010 schedule.

The Greenbrier Classic will debut the last week of July at the Greenbrier Resort in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. The Turning Stone Resort Championship moved from the Fall Series to the FedEx Cup regular season on the first week of August and the Reno-Tahoe Open will get an earlier date opposite the British Open Championship at St. Andrews, which will take place July 15-18.

Four events changed courses for 2010.

The AT&T National is headed to Philadelphia and Aronimink Golf Club over the Fourth of July holiday. The AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am got Monterey Peninsula Country Club into the rotation at the expense of Poppy Hills.

The Texas Open is headed to the TPC San Antonio for the first time and the Canadian Open moved to Toronto and St. George's Golf and Country Club for the first time since 1968.

In addition to Augusta National hosting the Masters and the Old Course at St. Andrews getting the British Open, the U.S. Open returns to Pebble Beach the week of June 17-20, and the PGA Championship will be staged at Whistling Straits in Kohler, Wisconsin from August 12-15.
