Phoenix Country Club Set To Host Charles Schwab Cup Championship, November 12-15

Historic downtown Phoenix club prepares for multi-million renovation this spring

Phoenix, Ariz. (November 9, 2026) - svg]:relative [&>svg]:top-1 text-link hover:text-link-hover active:text-link-hover " target="_blank">Phoenix Country Club will host the 2026 svg]:relative [&>svg]:top-1 text-link hover:text-link-hover active:text-link-hover " target="_blank">Charles Schwab Cup Championship from November 12 to 15, marking the 10th consecutive year the historic downtown Phoenix venue has hosted the PGA Tour Champions season finale.

The 2026 Championship will be the final professional tournament played at Phoenix Country Club before a year-long, multi-million-dollar renovation begins in February 2027. The 2027 Charles Schwab Cup Championship will relocate to Papago Golf Club in Phoenix.

Since 2017, Phoenix Country Club has been the venue for the Charles Schwab Cup Championship, following its move from Desert Mountain Country Club. The 2026 event will be the 52nd professional golf tournament held at the club in its 127-year history, more than any other golf facility in Arizona. Additionally, the club has hosted the Phoenix Open 42 times, including annually from 1932 to 1954 and 1972 to 1986, and every other year between 1956 and 1970.

The upcoming renovation, led by Scottsdale-based Staples Golf Design and architect Andy Staples, aims to blend historic design elements with modern playability. Originally designed in 1920 by Harry Collis, the course underwent renovations in 2002 by Tom Lehman and John Fought. The 2027 project will reconstruct all greens and bunkers, adjust tees to improve yardage equity, and expand fairways for a cohesive aesthetic. Additionally, holes 5 and 8 will be repositioned to accommodate a new short-game practice area adjacent to the range, and hole 12 will be redesigned into a risk/reward par 4.

"The past ten years have been an extraordinary chapter in Phoenix Country Club's history, and it has been an honor and privilege to partner with the PGA Tour Champions in hosting the Charles Schwab Cup Championship," said Phoenix Country Club Board President Lynn Ziolko. "Together, we have celebrated exceptional golf, welcomed legendary players, and created lasting memories for our Members and the Phoenix community. As Phoenix Country Club prepares for its final year of hosting the senior tour championship, we look forward to one more memorable tournament and celebrating an incredible decade of partnership with the PGA Tour Champions."

Defending champion Stewart Cink seeks his second consecutive Charles Schwab Cup after winning both the tournament and the season-long competition in 2025. He will compete against a 36-person field that includes Zach Johnson, Steven Alker, Padraig Harrington, Retief Goosen, Ernie Els, Miguel Angel Jiménez, Jerry Kelly, and Vijay Singh.

The tournament will be broadcast on Golf Channel: Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. EST (3 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time). Gates open daily at 10 a.m., with free shuttle service available from Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
