Get ready for a seismic shift in the world of golf! The PGA Tour just unveiled its 2026 FedEx Cup Fall schedule, and it’s a game-changer. With a bold move to expand the series, the Tour is not only adding new tournaments but also reshuffling the deck in ways that will keep fans and players on the edge of their seats. But here's where it gets controversial: two long-standing events are being replaced, and the Mexico Open is making a surprising leap to the Fall slate. Is this a strategic masterstroke or a risky gamble? Let’s dive in.
The 2026 FedEx Cup Fall will feature eight tournaments, up from seven in 2025, with two brand-new additions and a reshuffling of existing events. Making their debuts are the Biltmore Championship Asheville in North Carolina and the Good Good Championship in Austin, Texas. These newcomers will replace the Procore Championship in Napa, California, and the Sanderson Farms Championship in Jackson, Mississippi. And this is the part most people miss: the Mexico Open, previously part of the regular season, is now joining the Fall lineup, adding a global flair to the series.
Tyler Dennis, PGA Tour’s chief competitions officer, summed it up perfectly: “The PGA Tour is pleased to unveil its 2026 FedExCup Fall schedule, introducing exciting new U.S. events in addition to the global appeal of stops in Japan, Mexico, and Bermuda. Fans can expect rich storylines to unfold as players look to secure or improve their status for the following season.”
Here’s the full 2026 FedEx Cup Fall schedule, packed with action from September to November:
- Sept. 14-20: Biltmore Championship Asheville at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, Asheville, North Carolina
- Sept. 21-27: Presidents Cup at Medinah Country Club, Chicago, Illinois
- Sept. 28 - Oct. 4: Bank of Utah Championship at Black Desert Resort Golf Course, Ivins, Utah
- Oct. 5-11: Baycurrent Classic at Yokohama Country Club, Yokohama, Japan
- Oct. 19-25: Butterfield Bermuda Championship at Port Royal Golf Course, Southampton, Bermuda
- Oct. 26 - Nov. 1: VidantaWorld Mexico Open at Vidanta Vallarta Golf Course, Vallarta, Mexico
- Nov. 2-8: World Wide Technology Championship at El Cardonal at Diamante, Los Cabos, Mexico
- Nov. 9-15: Good Good Championship at Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa, Austin, Texas
- Nov. 16-22: RSM Classic at Sea Island Golf Club, St. Simons Island, Georgia
One of the most anticipated events is the Presidents Cup, returning to the fall season at the iconic Medinah Country Club in Chicago. Golf fans will recall Medinah as the site of the unforgettable 2012 Ryder Cup, where Europe staged a miraculous comeback against the U.S. Will history repeat itself? Only time will tell.
The RSM Classic will once again close out the calendar year, serving as the final battleground for golfers vying to secure their PGA Tour playing privileges. But here’s the real stakes: during the FedEx Cup Fall, players are fighting to lock in their status for the next season. Whether it’s earning a spot in the 2027 signature events via the Aon Next 10 or securing a full-time card by finishing in the top 100, every shot counts.
Controversial question for you: Is the PGA Tour’s decision to replace established tournaments with new ones a step forward or a step too far? And does shifting the Mexico Open to the Fall slate dilute its prestige or elevate its importance? Let us know your thoughts in the comments—this is one debate you won’t want to miss!
