The PGA Tour 2026 season is officially underway, and the storylines are already heating up. In this episode, we break down what makes the start of this season different, why Signature Events matter more than ever, and how early-season tournaments set the tone for the year ahead.
We dive into the cancellation of The Sentry, the importance of non-signature events like the Sony Open, and how the FedEx Cup “Swing Five” impacts player eligibility. The biggest headline of all: Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour. We unpack the PGA’s Returning Member Program, the financial implications, and what Koepka’s decision could mean for other LIV players.
Whether you closely follow professional golf or just want context for the season ahead, this episode serves as a clear, easy-to-follow primer for what to watch as the PGA Tour ramps up.
