The 2026 Solheim Cup will begin Friday at Bernardus Golf in Cromvoirt, Netherlands, with the United States seeking to retain the trophy after its victory at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia in 2024. Europe, captained by Anna Nordqvist, will attempt to reclaim the cup on home soil. The three-day matches will feature foursomes and four-ball contests on Friday and Saturday before Sunday’s singles. The U.S. roster includes Nelly Korda, Rose Zhang, Angel Yin and Megan Khang, while Europe will counter with Charley Hull, Lottie Woad, Celine Boutier, Maja Stark and Leona Maguire.
The event’s opening ceremony is scheduled for Thursday, with Golf Channel broadcasting from 1:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. ET on Friday and Saturday and from 5 a.m. to noon ET on Sunday. Streaming coverage will be available through Golfchannel.com and the Golf Channel app. Matchups and tee times had not yet been announced in the available tournament information.
In Ireland, Jon Rahm is preparing to compete in the 2026 Amgen Irish Open, where he will join a strong field that includes Rory McIlroy. Rahm also addressed uncertainty surrounding his future with LIV Golf after the league’s 2026 season ended early at LIV Indianapolis and questions emerged over its financial backing. Asked whether he could return to the PGA Tour, Rahm said he remains committed to his existing agreement, stating, “I still have a contract with LIV 1.0 that I’m more than willing to fulfill,” before adding, “Time will tell.” If LIV’s proposed restructuring fails, Rahm could face limited options, including playing primarily on the DP World Tour and pursuing an eventual return through established pathways.
Elsewhere on the DP World Tour, Paul Casey has taken the lead at the European Masters, while LIV golfer Peter Uihlein was removed from DP World Tour qualifying school for a rules violation. The ruling adds another layer to the uncertainty facing LIV players seeking access to established tour events and pathways.
