La troisième période s'ouvre après le The Tour Championship. Appelée Fall Series, cette série de tournois est souvent ignorée par les meilleurs joueurs. Elle permet aux autres joueurs d'essayer de conserver leur carte pour la saison suivante en parvenant à terminer dans les 125 de la Money list ou d'obtenir une exemption de deux ans par le gain d'un tournoi.

The 2012 PGA Tour was the 45th season since the Tour became independent from the PGA of America. The season consisted of a total of 45 official money events running from early January to mid November. The schedule was announced on October 19, 2011, had four phases:
* Regular season – Consisted of 37 events and started on January 5 with the limited-field Hyundai Tournament of Champions and ended with the Wyndham Championship on August 19.
* FedEx Cup Playoffs – As in previous seasons, this was a series of four tournaments. It started with The Barclays on August 23 and ended with the Tour Championship on September 23.
* Fall Series – After the Tour Championship, the principal portion of the season ended with a series of four tournaments. These tournaments, generally passed on by the elite players, offered an additional opportunity for players to secure their tour cards for the following season by finishing in the top 125 on the money list, or to gain a two-year exemption by winning a tournament with a slightly weaker field than usual.
* Between the regular season and the end of the Fall Series, the tour had three events, none of which offered official prize money.
* The 2012 Ryder Cup, a biennial team competition involving the United States team and the European team. In 2012, this event was held in Illinois.
* The CIMB Classic, a limited-field event held in Malaysia that debuted in 2010.
* The WGC-HSBC Champions, a World Golf Championships event held in China. Founded in 2005, it was elevated to WGC status in 2009, when it also became an event on the PGA Tour schedule. Although the prize money was unofficial, it counted as an official PGA Tour win, if it was won by a PGA Tour member. The regular season included all four major championships and three of the World Golf Championships events. All four majors and all four WGC events were also sanctioned by the European Tour.

Le circuit de la PGA 2012 est le circuit nord-américain de golf qui se déroule sur l'année 2012. L’événement est organisé par la Professional Golfers' Association of America (PGA) dont la plupart des tournois se tiennent aux États-Unis. La saison s'articule autour de quatre périodes : la saison dite régulière, composée de 37 tournois, se termine au terme du Wyndham Championship fin août. Cette période est ensuite suivie de quatre tournois composant les FedEx Cup Playoffs : ce sont le The Barclays, le Deutsche Bank Championship, le Championnat BMW et le The Tour Championship. Ces quatre tournois ne sont ouverts qu'aux joueurs les mieux classés à l'issue de la phase régulière. Le nombre de joueurs se réduit de tournoi en tournoi. La troisième période s'ouvre après le The Tour Championship. Appelée Fall Series, cette série de tournois est souvent ignorée par les meilleurs joueurs. Elle permet aux autres joueurs d'essayer de conserver leur carte pour la saison suivante en parvenant à terminer dans les 125 de la Money list ou d'obtenir une exemption de deux ans par le gain d'un tournoi. La quatrième période se déroule en Asie et dans le Pacifique. Ces tournois n'entrent pas dans le calcul de la Money list. La saison est composée de 50 tournois.
