Get ready for a golf season like no other! The PGA Tour's 2026 fall schedule is here, and it's packed with exciting changes that are sure to shake things up. But here's where it gets controversial: with two brand-new events, a Mexico swing, and a return to some fan-favorite locations, this lineup is bound to spark debates among fans and players alike. Is this expansion a hole-in-one, or are we spreading the tour too thin? Let’s dive in.
The FedEx Cup fall schedule, unveiled on Friday, is expanding to eight events—one more than last season. Kicking things off is the Biltmore Championship Asheville, held at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove in North Carolina from September 17-20. This marks the PGA Tour’s first return to Asheville since Ben Hogan’s legendary wins in the 1940s. And this is the part most people miss: it’s not just about new locations; it’s about reviving golf’s rich history in unexpected places.
After the Presidents Cup at Medinah Country Club in Chicago (September 24-27), the action moves to the Bank of Utah Championship in Ivins, Utah (October 1-4). Then, it’s off to Yokohama, Japan, for the Baycurrent Classic (October 8-11), where Xander Schauffele claimed victory last year. But here’s the twist: the tour’s international footprint is growing, and some wonder if this global expansion is diluting the tour’s American roots. What do you think?
Following a two-week break, the Butterfield Bermuda Championship (October 22-25) tees off, followed by the VidantaWorld Mexico Open in Nuevo Vallarta (October 29-November 1). Controversial take alert: the Mexico Open’s move from February to October has raised eyebrows. Is this a strategic shift or a logistical headache? Share your thoughts below!
The Mexico swing continues with the World Wide Technology Championship in Los Cabos (November 5-8), played on the Tiger Woods-designed El Cardonal course. Then, it’s back to the U.S. for the Good Good Championship in Austin, Texas (November 12-15), marking the tour’s return to the city after a year-long absence. Fun fact: this event is named after the popular golf influencers, adding a modern twist to the tradition-rich tour.
The fall schedule wraps up with the RSM Classic at Sea Island Golf Club in Georgia (November 19-22), where the FedExCup fall standings will be finalized. All four U.S.-based fall tournaments will be broadcast on ESPN+, ensuring fans don’t miss a moment.
One notable change: the Procore Championship in Napa, California, and the Sanderson Farms Championship in Mississippi won’t be played this season. Is this a sign of the tour’s evolving priorities, or just a temporary pause? Let us know in the comments.
With new destinations, historic revivals, and a global reach, the 2026 fall schedule is a bold step forward for the PGA Tour. But as we’ve seen, not every change is without controversy. What’s your take on this revamped lineup? Is it a game-changer, or are there too many swings and misses? Let’s tee up the debate!
