After celebrating its 75th anniversary season, the LPGA Tour has unveiled its 2026 schedule featuring 33 events and a record prize fund of over $132 million. The year will showcase new events, new venues and increased purses, highlighted by the Solheim Cup in the Netherlands. Commissioner Craig Kessler said the Tour has focused on elevating courses, improving routing and expanding opportunities for players, calling the 2026 calendar a major step forward.
For the first time since 1995, every LPGA Tour event and every round will air live across the United States, with select weekend coverage on CNBC. The Tour also announced multi-year partnerships with U-NEXT and FM to enhance its North American broadcast footprint, supported by Golf Channel and Trackman.
The 2026 schedule includes stops in 13 countries and regions and 13 U.S. states, with two Asian swings and a mid-year European run featuring two majors and the Women’s Scottish Open. The major championship season begins with The Chevron Championship in April, followed by the U.S. Women’s Open at Riviera, the KPMG Women’s PGA at Hazeltine, the Amundi Evian Championship in France and the AIG Women’s Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes.
The Solheim Cup will return to Europe from Sept. 11–13 at Bernardus Golf, with Anna Nordqvist captaining Europe and Angela Stanford leading the U.S. team. Players will compete for the largest prize fund in Tour history, with more than $82 million in non-major purses. Twelve events have announced elevated purses, and nearly 20 tournaments will offer enhanced player experience benefits including hotels, flights and transportation.
