The announcement follows an outstanding 2025 season, which featured Australian Scott Hend, a multiple winner on the DP World Tour and Asian Tour, claiming the season-long Order of Merit title after a dominant year.
 
The new season will see a refreshed identity unveiled with a new logo, an expanded international calendar and a continued commitment to showcasing world-class, over-50s competition. Featuring Ryder Cup captains, Major champions and proven Tour winners, alongside an exciting influx of new players, the Legends Tour continues to celebrate excellence built on experience and sustained performance at the highest level. 
 
The Tour will also continue to offer amateur golfers the unique opportunity to play alongside legends of the game, both in fun pro-am formats and competitive "tournament experience" golf.
 
With a new title sponsor and events staged across the UK and Ireland, Europe, America, the Caribbean and Asia, the 2026 Legends Tour calendar underlines its truly global reach and growing international stature.
 
 
The season kicks off in February in Marbella, with a strong field at Aloha that includes home favourites Jose María Olazabal and Miguel Angel Jimenez, before a return to Barbados at the end of April, where the Tour will visit the spectacular Apes Hill resort for a tournament hosted by Masters champion and 2006 Ryder Cup captain Ian Woosnam. 
 
The Tour’s flagship event, the PGA Seniors Championship, will once again be hosted by another household name and former Ryder Cup captain, Colin Montgomerie – who will resume host duties at the magnificent Trump International Scotland in Aberdeen. The August event will be the first professional tournament to be played on the New Course, marking a significant milestone for both the venue and Scottish golf. 
 
Fans can also look forward to three prestigious Major championships on the 2026 schedule. The Major season will begin with the Senior PGA Championship in Florida in April, followed by the US Senior Open in Ohio in July, before culminating in the ISPS HANDA Senior Open at Gleneagles in Scotland. Hosted at the iconic 2014 Ryder Cup venue, Gleneagles offers a historic and fitting stage for one of the most celebrated championships in the senior game, reinforcing the Tour’s connection to the sport’s most storied venues. 
 
Further highlights include a co-sanctioned PGA Tour Champions event in Portugal at the end of July which will see many global stars playing at the Els Club in Vilamoura.
 
Aside from Hend's domination, 2025 also featured a number of rookies coming into contention alongside established names, underlining the depth, competitiveness and evolving profile of the Tour. This included the likes of Ryder Cup stars Jamie Donaldson, Stephen Gallacher and David Howell, as well as established DP World Tour stalwarts Johan Edfors, Anthony Wall, David Drysdale and Steve Webster, plus Darren Fichardt, who was crowned Barry Lane Rookie of the Year in 2025 after a stellar season competing on both the Legends Tour and the DP World Tour.  
 
With Ryder Cup pedigree, Major-winning talent, emerging contenders and world-class global venues across Europe, America and Asia, the 2026 Legends Tour is poised to deliver another year of compelling storylines and elite competition. Further additions to the 2026 schedule will be confirmed in due course.
