PGA Tour 2026 Schedule Revealed With One Major Shake-Up
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The 2025 PGA Tour season comes to a close this weekend at the Tour Championship. All eyes will be on World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, coming off another thrilling victory at the BMW Championship. But with this season winding down, the PGA Tour unveiled its schedule for the 2026 season. Although from a macro perspective, there are not a ton of changes, there is one noteworthy addition. The PGA Tour is headed back to Trump National Doral in Miami, Florida. The event, being titled the Miami Championship, is still in search of a title sponsor, according to ESPN. The iconic course has been added as one of the signature events, accompanied by the elevated $20 million purse. It will take place during maybe the busiest stretch for Tour professionals, April 30 through May 3. The Masters will be held April 9-12, but is now proceeded by three signature events during a four-week span leading into the PGA Championship. It begs the question of how many top-tier players will now tee it up at the Truist Championship, the tournament before the PGA? Miami, Doral, Florida, USA - October 24, 2019: Trump National Doral Resort sign located at the entrance to the golf resort with its signature course the Blue Monster, PGA Tour Miami, Doral, Florida, USA - October 24, 2019: Trump National Doral Resort sign located at the entrance to the golf resort with its signature course the Blue Monster, PGA Tour Getty Images Doral was first a part of the PGA Tour in 1962. In 2007, it was added as part of the World Golf Championship circuit of events. However, in 2016, the tournament was moved to Mexico after failing to find a title sponsor. Over the last four years, the venue hosted LIV Golf Miami. But for the time being, LIV players will no longer play the famed "Blue Monster." The rest of the changes are negligible. The Mexico Open has been moved to the fall schedule. The Barracuda Championship in Truckee, Calif., is no longer on the schedule. A couple of opposite-field events have been moved down in the season. Lastly, the Rocket Classic in Detroit, previously in June, has been moved to August, two weeks after The Open. More Golf: Tiger Woods' TGL Announces Tee Off Date, Opening Match For Season 2

Tiger Woods once used his Masters jacket to take a jab at Justin Thomas over FaceTime
You come at the king, you best not miss. That's the moral of the story told by Justin Thomas in his pre-tournament press conference Tuesday at East Lake Golf Club where, in 2017, he was crowned FedEx Cup champion after finishing second in the Tour Championship but at the top of the season-long standings — a fitting end to the best year of Thomas' career in which he racked up six wins. But there's another moment that sticks out in Thomas' mind when he looks back on his time spent at the famed course that sits five miles east of downtown Atlanta, and it isn't a moment that was witnessed by the masses. Asked what his favorite East Lake memory was outside of hoisting the FedEx Cup in 2017, Thomas recalled a hilarious interaction with arguably the game's greatest player: Tiger Woods. "Probably my best memory, and I couldn't even tell you what year it was, it was probably — I guess it would have been 2020," Thomas said. "I remember playing here, playing a practice round and walking down 18 and FaceTiming Tiger, because he wasn't here and didn't qualify, just showing him how the course was and how great it was. "Then, he acted like his phone cut out and then he called me back two minutes later with green jacket on. I remember that very, very, very vividly. Just a typical conversation of thinking I am having some kind of upper edge, and I get shut down and put in my place pretty quickly. "There's a lot of golf things here and there that have obviously happened, but that's the first thing that came to mind when you said that." There's no comeback for that one. Touché, Tiger. The friendship between Thomas and Woods is well-documented. They live in the same neighborhood in Jupiter, Florida, often playing golf together both in their free time and during practice rounds at PGA Tour events. The two have been seen having laughs and taking jabs at each other on the golf course numerous times throughout their careers (You might remember the time at Riviera Country Club during the Genesis Invitational in 2023 when Woods outdrove Thomas and tried to covertly hand him a certain feminine hygiene product). Thomas is also a member of the TGL, an indoor golf league started by Woods and Rory McIlroy that will begin its second season in December. Entering this week's 2025 Tour Championship — the last of three legs in the FedEx Cup Playoffs — Thomas is in search of his second win this season. He defeated Andrew Novak in a playoff at the RBC Heritage back in April and followed it up with a T-2 finish at the Truist Championship in his next start a few weeks later. He became a popular pick in the majors that followed shortly thereafter, but his major season didn't feature anything to write home about. Thomas missed the cut at both the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open before finishing T-34 at the Open Championship. He'll look to right the ship at East Lake and finish the PGA Tour season on a high note before turning his attention to the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. Bryson DeChambeau narrowly edged out Thomas for the sixth and final automatic spot on the Team USA roster, but he finished in seventh and figures to be near the top of Keegan Bradley's list to be one of the six captain's picks.

McIlroy backs 'clean slate' season finale format change
Rory McIlroy is backing the format change that will see all 30 players tee off as equals as they battle for the FedEx Cup in the PGA Tour's Tour Championship starting on Thursday. A $10 million winner's cheque will be on offer at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta for the climax of the season-ending playoff series, with world number one Scottie Scheffler starting as the man to beat. But unlike previous seasons, Scheffler will be starting on even par with the rest of the field following the decision to scrap the controversial "starting strokes" format. Last year, Scheffler started the Tour Championship with a two-shot advantage at 10 under to reflect his season-long dominance of the FedEx standings. That system was eliminated for the 2025 tournament however following feedback from fans, with tour officials stating in May that a conventional 72-hole strokeplay tournament offered the "most straightforward and engaging format". Masters champion McIlroy said Tuesday he backs the move to switch formats. "It has a different feel," McIlroy said. "Any one of the 30 has a chance to win the FedExCup this year, which is obviously a lot different than it's been in previous years. "It's a clean slate for everyone, and it's a great opportunity for one of the guys that maybe wasn't a huge part of the season to put their hand up and have a chance to win the big prize at the end of the year. "It's also a great opportunity for some of the guys that have had great years to sort of rubber stamp the season a little bit and end on a really, really positive note. I think there's still a lot to play for this week." McIlroy said he had been in a minority who "didn't hate" the starting strokes format. "I thought that the player that played the best during the course of the season should have had an advantage coming in here," he said. "But the majority of people just didn't like the starting strokes." McIlroy, who served on the PGA Tour's Player Advisory Council (PAC) which had helped implement the format changes, said switching to a match play format had been considered but discarded. "Match play was on the table, and that got canned for this year," McIlroy said. "I think it's just hard for the players to reconcile that we play stroke play for every week of the year but then the season-ending tournament is going to be decided by match play." McIlroy's Ryder Cup team-mate, England's Tommy Fleetwood, also approves of the format switch. "It's probably more exciting for the players to come here, everybody on a level field, knowing it's an unbelievable opportunity to have a great week, win the tournament and leave here unbelievably happy," Fleetwood said. rcw/nf
