The Founders Cup is back in 2026, once again traveling to a new location after previous stops in Arizona, New Jersey and Florida. Now, it brings the LPGA back to the Bay Area, a hot bed for women’s golf. Whether it be Stanford or San José State in college, or local players like Juli Inkster, Danielle Kang and defending champion Yealimi Noh, the women’s game should have a big-time event in the Bay.
This year, the Founders Cup represents the return to the United States for the LPGA Tour, and also the first true full-field event of the season. There is a great field including Jeeno Thitikul, Nelly Korda, Minjee Lee and Lydia Ko.
Here is how to watch the 2026 Fortinet Founders Cup (all times Eastern):
