The PGA Tour has canceled The Sentry for 2026, citing drought, agronomic issues, and logistical challenges at Kapalua’s Plantation Course. Efforts to find a new venue failed, so the 2026 season will start with the Sony Open in Hawaii on January 15–18.
Golf Channel is reviving ‘The Big Break’ in partnership with Good Good Golf, debuting in August 2026 at Horseshoe Bay Resort in Texas. The winner will earn a PGA Tour exemption into the new Good Good Championship that fall.
TGL, the tech-based golf league by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, will debut Season 2 on December 28, 2025, with upgrades including a larger GreenZone putting surface, enhanced bunkers, and improved graphics using the Unity 6 engine. The updates aim to create a more immersive and competitive experience.
Amazon has launched its first golf ball, the Amazon Basics Core Soft, priced around $12–15 per dozen. The 2-piece, low-compression ball with an ionomer cover is designed for casual golfers seeking affordability and basic performance rather than premium features.
Good Good Golf will sponsor the new Good Good Championship on the PGA Tour in Austin, Texas, November 2026. The YouTube-born brand’s deal is seen as a genuine move to connect the Tour with younger, digital audiences rather than just a marketing gimmick.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler has launched the Randy Smith Junior Tour, a free golf circuit in North Texas for ages 6–12. Focused on fun and learning rather than competition, the 2026 tour will feature 10–12 par-3 events, honoring Scheffler’s mentor while making golf more accessible for young players.
Tiger Woods has fallen out of the top 2,000 in the Official World Golf Ranking as of October 5, 2025, marking a significant decline from his record 683 weeks at No. 1. This drop reflects the ongoing challenges he faces due to injuries and limited competitive play.
The BombTech Atomic Driver offers increased distance, forgiveness, and adjustability at an accessible price. It features a carbon crown, triple weight port system, hot-forged titanium face, and a fully adjustable hosel, delivering longer, straighter shots with reduced spin. BombTech also provides a 60-day on-course guarantee.
LIV Golf CEO Scott O’Neil reported the league has secured $500 million in sponsorships over the past 10 months, including partners like HSBC, Salesforce, Fox Sports, Aramco, and Riyadh Air, highlighting rapid commercial growth and improved player experience.
