Golf fans, get ready — the Coachella Valley is about to welcome one of the biggest names in the sport. World No. 1 and four-time major champion Scottie Scheffler is officially teeing off the 2026 PGA TOUR season at The American Express®, and all eyes will be on the desert greens.
Scheffler, a 19-time PGA TOUR winner and four-time consecutive Jack Nicklaus Award recipient as Player of the Year, has committed to the tournament, marking his sixth appearance in the Coachella Valley and his first since 2024. It’s a highly anticipated return for the superstar golfer, whose strongest finish at the event came during his debut in 2020, when he claimed an impressive solo third-place finish.
But Scheffler won’t be alone. He’ll be joined by 11 other world-class players, promising a stacked field and high-stakes competition to launch the new season in style.
Set against the stunning desert backdrop, The American Express® continues its reputation as one of the most exciting and fan-friendly stops on the PGA TOUR calendar — blending elite golf, celebrity energy, and festival-like vibes that make it a must-watch event.
Whether you’re a die-hard golf fan or just love seeing top-tier sports meet iconic destinations, this is one season opener you won’t want to miss.
