Scottie Scheffler’s 2026 season will begin at the American Express

Scottie Scheffler’s 2026 season will begin at the American Express

Sports news

Scottie Scheffler will make his 2026 debut at the American Express in California, according to multiple reports. Adam Scott and Matthew Fitzpatrick will also be in attendance which is sure to make things all the more awesome. We are just two weeks away from the event beginning.

The world number one and reigning PGA Champion and Open Champion of the Year actually committed to both the American Express and WM Phoenix Open. It feels like forever ago, but it was in Arizona back four years ago now when Scottie won for the first time and everything as we know it in golf changed.

While this is Scheffler’s start to the season the PGA Tour season at large will begin a week before he tees it up. The Sony Open in Hawaii kicks the season off next week and that is followed by the American Express. The Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines is between that and the Waste Management so it appears Scottie is already getting specific about his schedule in the early part of the season.

Ever since his WM win back in 2022 we have asked and wondered how he could top each year that he has had, but Scottie has always found a way. What could 2026 possibly have in store?

We will find out in two week’s time.

World Athletics president Sebastian Coe has told AFP he will remain “tough” on the issue of athletes switching nationality after his federation blocked a bid by top Jamaicans and Kenyans to move to Turkey.

The 2024 Olympic men’s discus champion Roje Stona from Jamaica, and a quintet of Kenyans including former women’s marathon world record-holder Brigid Kosgei, were among the 11 targeted by lucrative offers from Turkey.

“The concept is very simple, there should be a very clear understanding and philosophy that the country an athlete starts their career in is the country that they finish their career in,” Coe said in an interview on Friday ahead of the World Athletics Relays event in Botswana.

“And for global championships to have meaning and to have understanding, people need to witness championships where you have national-based competitions,” he added.

Coe said a World Athletics panel examined every request to switch nationality and he accepted in some cases there would be circumstances in which it was acceptable, such as marriage or “political intolerance”.

But he said Turkey’s bid to recruit elite athletes from other countries by offering them financial packages in a bid to boost its medal count at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics was the kind of move that would always be rejected.

“If it is simply about wanting to move from one federation to another, that doesn’t fall into that criteria. We will remain tough,” Coe said.

“It’s very important, most federations rely very heavily on government investment and government investment will dry up if those governments think that they are investing in talent programmes for other countries.”

Letsile Tebogo, the 2024 Olympic 200 metres champion and the leading light of a talented crop of Botswanan sprinters, revealed in December that he has rebuffed offers to switch to Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Tunisia.

Botswana, a country of 2.5 million inhabitants which is largely desert, has experienced economic turbulence with the downturn of the global diamond market, which represents 30 percent of its GDP, but continues to inject funds into its successful athletics programme.

Deadspin | Galaxy in need of 3 points vs. Whitecaps Apr 26, 2026; Carson, California, USA; LA Galaxy midfielder Marco Reus (18) reacts after scoring a goal during the second half against Real Salt Lake at Dignity Health Sports Park. Mandatory Credit: Kiyoshi Mio-Imagn Images While there’s a lot of time left in the MLS season, it’s also true that every result you book now means one less you need in October. That’s why the Los Angeles Galaxy could use three points from Saturday night’s fixture with the Vancouver Whitecaps in Carson, Calif. While Vancouver (8-1-0, 24 points) leads the league in goal differential and has more points than any team except San Jose, LA (3-4-3, 12 points) currently sits at 10th in the West standings. That would leave it out of the postseason if it started Saturday. The two pieces of good news are that the postseason doesn’t start for nearly six months, and that the Galaxy are coming off a 2-1 win April 26 against Real Salt Lake. Marco Reus delivered both goals, including a penalty kick in the 85th minute to snap a 1-1 tie. Reus, who helped take up the offensive slack left by injured striker Joao Klauss (foot), thinks Los Angeles learned a lesson. “You don’t have to play nice to win games,” he said. “Sometimes, you have to play dirty to win games. It doesn’t matter if we’re defending or playing forward.” While Los Angeles searches for consistency, the Whitecaps aim to keep their considerable off-field distractions off the field. The Athletic reported Friday morning that an investor group led by 30-year-old Grant Gustavson has made an offer to buy the team with the intention of moving it to Las Vegas. The franchise has been up for sale since December 2024. The league said the team’s lease with BC Place, whose primary tenant is the CFL’s B.C. Lions, is untenable. The city has a site in mind for a soccer-specific stadium but lacks a bridge deal to get past this year, much less build the facility. Despite that as the backdrop, Vancouver has steamrolled nearly everyone. It’s coming off a 3-1 home win April 25 against Colorado behind a brace from Brian White, whose eight goals trail only Petar Musa (Dallas) and Sam Surridge (Nashville). “We believe in each other. We believe in the staff,” midfielder Sebastian Berhalter said. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Galaxy #points #WhitecapsApr 26, 2026; Carson, California, USA; LA Galaxy midfielder Marco Reus (18) reacts after scoring a goal during the second half against Real Salt Lake at Dignity Health Sports Park.
