The tee times for The American Express on the PGA Tour are set, with three DACH players starting on three different courses.
At the second tournament of the PGA Tour’s The American Express, players will tee off on Thursday at three different golf courses within PGA West in La Quinta, southern California. PGA West is a world-renowned golf and lifestyle resort known as ‘The Western Home of Golf in America,’ featuring multiple clubhouses and nine courses, despite La Quinta having a population of around 40,000. During the tournament, play will take place on the Pete Dye Stadium Course, La Quinta Country Club, and Nicklaus Tournament Course.
Besides last year’s defending champion from Austria, Sepp Straka, two German players are competing in this event. Matti Schmid is playing his second tournament of the season after missing the cut last weekend in Hawaii. Stephan Jäger makes his 2026 season debut in California. MagentaTV will provide live coverage from Thursday to Sunday starting at 5:30 p.m. local time.
