PGA Tour Tee Times: Straka, Schmid, and Jäger at The American Express 2026

The tee times for The American Express on the PGA Tour are set. Three DACH players start on three different golf courses.

At the second tournament of the PGA Tour event The American Express, players will tee off on Thursday across three different golf courses at PGA West in La Quinta, Southern California, known as the ‘Golden State’. PGA West is a world-renowned golf and lifestyle resort, nicknamed ‘The Western Home of Golf in America’, featuring multiple clubhouses and a total of nine golf courses, despite La Quinta having only around 40,000 residents. Throughout the tournament, play will take place on the Pete Dye Stadium Course, La Quinta Country Club, and the Nicklaus Tournament Course.

Alongside the defending champion from Austria, Sepp Straka, two German players are competing in this tournament. Matti Schmid is participating in his second tournament this season after missing the cut last weekend in Hawaii. Stephan Jäger will make his 2026 season debut in California. MagentaTV will cover the tournament live from Thursday to Sunday starting at 17:30 local time each day.
