The 2023 Korn Ferry Tour was the 33rd season of the Korn Ferry Tour, the official development tour to the PGA Tour.

Changes for 2023

Unlike in previous seasons, the Finals did not have a separate points list; the top 30 point winners through the entire season, including the Finals, earned PGA Tour cards. Those who finish 31-75 remain fully exempt on the Korn Ferry Tour for the next season. A rule change announced in December 2022 allowed for Korn Ferry Tour members that made the 36-hole cut in the U.S. Open to earn Korn Ferry Tour points equivalent to FedEx Cup points earned for their finish.{{cite web |title=Korn Ferry Tour members eligible to earn points from U.S. Open finishes beginning in 2023 |url=https://www.pgatour.com/korn-ferry-tour/news/2022/12/19/members-eligible-to-earn-points-for-us-open-finishes-effective-2023.html |publisher=PGA Tour |date=December 19, 2022 |access-date=31 August 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221219154518/https://www.pgatour.com/korn-ferry-tour/news/2022/12/19/members-eligible-to-earn-points-for-us-open-finishes-effective-2023.html |archive-date=19 December 2022}}{{cite magazine |title=This small rules change to the U.S. Open could have major implications on tour cards for 2023 |url=https://www.golfdigest.com/story/usga-kft-points-us-open-2022 |magazine=Golf Digest |date=December 19, 2022 |access-date=December 19, 2022 |first=Joel |last=Beall}}
