Scottie Scheffler took two major steps towards the career grand slam last year, and – hot on the heels of Rory McIlroy – he'll become only the seventh golfer to achieve the feat if he wins the Masters this April. The world No.1 has been the dominant force on the PGA Tour for two years running, but the 2026 PGA Tour could end up being the most memorable campaign of his career.

2025 also saw JJ Spaun hit the big-time by winning the US Open, and Tommy Fleetwood finally secure his first PGA Tour victory at the 164th time of asking, at the Tour Championship.

The Sentry's cancelation means the season starts a little later than usual this time around, at the Sony Open in Hawaii in late January. Players who had qualified for the Kapalua Resort tournament are now eligible for the RBC Heritage instead.

2026 marks the start of a new era for the PGA Tour, as outgoing commissioner Jay Monahan hands over to incoming CEO Brian Rolapp, whose background is the NFL. Rolapp has already hinted at plans to restructure the golf calendar, though they're unlike to be acted upon just yet.
