As the defending champion of The American Express, Sepp Straka may be the one the others are all looking to beat, but the Austrian says he feels the intensity of the competition coming out to kick off the 2026 PGA Tour schedule on Thursday in La Quinta, Calif.
The slightly altered start to the 2026 PGA Tour schedule has become a boon for The American Express. Several top players who normally would have debuted at The Sentry, the since-canceled tournament on Maui, will hit their first tee shots of the season at The American Express on Thursday in La Quinta, Calif.
Scottie Scheffler returns to the PGA Tour this week to make his 2026 debut at The American Express in La Quinta, Calif. We all know he's on top of the power rankings this week, but what about the rest of the top 10?
The PGA Tour heads to La Quinta, Calif., this week for The American Express. Several of the world’s top players are set to make their season debuts at the three-course event, so let’s break down the five storylines to watch.
Harold Varner III has been added to the Smash GC official roster for the 2026 season in the LIV Golf League following Brooks Koepka's departure to the PGA Tour.
Missing out on golf’s biggest stages would hit hard for most pros. Competing in the majors is the ultimate goal for so many young golfers, and players battle all over the globe just to earn a spot.
Sir Nick Faldo’s mastery with approach shots remains a blueprint for better ball-striking. Few players in the modern era have ever matched the level of control Sir Nick Faldo showed with his irons at the height of his career.
Rory McIlroy said the rift between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf is too wide, effectively negating any chance for a reunification in the sport of golf. "I just don't see a world where it can happen at this point," the second-ranked McIlroy said Wednesday at Emirates Golf Club ahead of this week's Dubai Desert Classic.
Rory McIlroy has said that he believes Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton should pay around $6 million in DP World Tour fines if they want to play in the next Ryder Cup.
Graeme McDowell has defended LIV Golf’s decision to sign NCAA Champion Michael La Sasso, describing it as a positive move for young players entering the professional game.
Luke Donald may end up being remembered as the greatest Ryder Cup captain Europe has ever had. Donald took on the job in 2023 with little time to prepare but still led Europe to a dominant win over Team USA in Rome.
Brooks Koepka’s decision to leave LIV Golf and rejoin the PGA Tour has put the sport in unfamiliar territory, marking him as the first player to make the switch back.
Jack Nicklaus has revealed who he believes is the greatest golfer of all time, and it’s not Tiger Woods. The 18-time major champion named Bobby Jones as his ultimate benchmark, describing the legendary amateur as the sport’s most complete and timeless player.
Scottie Scheffler has started the 2026 PGA Tour season by saying he isn’t “super goal-oriented,” explaining that he prefers to focus on preparation and consistency rather than chasing specific milestones.
The moment is sure to become part of TGL lore and replayed for years to come. Justin Rose stepped up to a par-5 and delivered a shot that sent the Palm Beach Gardens crowd into a frenzy.
Will Zalatoris might be well positioned to make himself a top comeback player during the 2026 PGA Tour season. During Tuesday's media availability in advance of The American Express in La Quinta, Calif., he confirmed that could be a possibility.
TGL continues to be one of the coolest things in golf at the moment. Tuesday brought another matchup, pitting Tiger Woods’ Jupiter Links up against the Los Angeles Golf Club.
The new indoor tech-infused WTGL announced its first five players ahead of its debut next winter. The WTGL is the women's version of the men's TGL which made its debut last year with some of the top stars on the PGA Tour and currently is in its second season.
Patrick Reed has revealed that he is open to leaving LIV Golf to return to the PGA Tour. This follows Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour under the new Returning Member Program, and the PGA Tour introduced the program ahead of the 2026 season to allow select former players to return.
Bubba Watson prefers tighter, more chaotic finishes to golf tournaments, so he's against LIV Golf's move from 54 to 72 holes for every event this upcoming season.
