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?
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.
