The 2026 PGA Championship tees off this Thursday at the historic Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, marking the first time the course has hosted the major since 1962—when Gary Player claimed victory with a 2-under score. Golf fans are in for a treat as the tournament returns to this classic venue after more than six decades.
All eyes will be on defending champion Scottie Scheffler, who aims to become the first golfer since Brooks Koepka in 2018-19 to win back-to-back PGA Championships. Scheffler's victory last year at Quail Hollow set the stage for a thrilling title defense, but he'll face stiff competition from a stacked field that includes four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, who is coming off back-to-back Masters victories. The chase for the Wanamaker Trophy also features rising stars Bryson DeChambeau, Tommy Fleetwood, Cameron Young, and Chris Gotterup—all hungry for their first major championship win.
For fans looking to catch every swing, the 2026 PGA Championship will be broadcast live on ESPN and CBS. ESPN will carry the primary broadcast for all four rounds, while CBS takes over for the weekend action during Rounds 3 and 4. Streaming options are plentiful: you can watch the main network broadcasts on fubo, which offers a free trial for new subscribers and includes ESPN, ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, and over 200 live channels. Paramount+ will stream Rounds 3 and 4, while ESPN+ provides exclusive coverage of select holes and featured groups through the ESPN app—perfect for fans who want to follow their favorite players shot by shot.
Thursday's Round 1 tee times are set, and the leaderboard promises plenty of drama from the opening drive. Whether you're tuning in for the back-to-back champion's quest, the return to Aronimink, or the next generation of golf stars, this year's PGA Championship is shaping up to be an unforgettable tournament. Grab your gear, settle in, and get ready for four days of world-class golf.
