Are there more tournaments after the playoffs?
In most sports playoffs infer that is the end of that sports season. Las Vegas better be on the schedule.

Fall schedule
I believe there is a fall schedule for the golfers.
They play all the way until Nov. 9th. My pick for the Barclay's, which I am attending on Sunday, wooo!!! Anthony Kim! |

As rocket said, there is a fall schedule which is mostly used by golfers at the lower end of the spectrum trying to secure their cards for next season. And Vegas is a part of it

Thank you both for answering my questions.
I still have a question. Why is the playoffs in golf not at the end of their calendar year? Don't try to answer my last question.

this playoff system is all new. its part of the fed ex cup, with the winner getting a solid paycheck of 10 million dollars. Not bad right?
Normally there was never a playoff, simply the majors. This is simply to provide some excitement for players and fans alike, what the whole point system comes down to. Some like it, some don't. Last year, Tiger skipped one of the events and lots of people cried foul, saying how you can't win the playoffs by missing an event. But it's all experimental in my opinion.
