The 2026 LPGA Tour schedule has been announced, with record prize money for the 33-event docket that means better playing opportunities across the board.
The LPGA is expecting to play for a minimum total purse of more than $132 million, marking a modest increase over the dramatic jump from 2024 to 2026.
Always live coverage
The biggest enhancement to the 2026 LPGA Tour schedule comes in the form over broadcast coverage on Golf Channel, with FM investing in dramatic coverage improvements to make sure each LPGA round will air live on Golf Channel (or CNBC). There will also be a 50 percent increase in cameras used, a 300 percent increase in the number of microphones, quadruple the number of Trackman-enabled cameras and much more.
New events
The new event on the schedule is the Aramco Championship, with the Saudi-owned company sponsoring a new $4 million event which replaces the T-Mobile Match Play that has been played in Las Vegas at Shadow Creek. Shadow Creek remains host of a new stroke-play event, co-sanctioned with the Ladies European Tour.
