The LPGA Tour announced its 2026 schedule on Wednesday with 33 events worldwide and a record total prize fund of $132 million.
On the eve of the season-ending Tour Championship at Naples, Florida, the series looked ahead to next year, a campaign that will include the Solheim Cup in the Netherlands next September.
"I'm incredibly proud of what we've built and even more excited about where we're headed," LPGA commissioner Craig Kessler said.
"This schedule reflects the work we've put into elevating our courses, improving our routing, and continuing to grow purses."
The tour will visit 13 nations next year, including two swings through Asia and another into Europe.

The 20th edition of the biennial Solheim Cup will be played at Dutch course Bernardus on September 11-13 with Angela Stafford serving as captain for holders United States against a Europe squad guided by Swede Anna Nordqvist.
The 2026 LPGA season will begin with the Tournament of Champions at Lake Nona in Orlando from January 29-February 1.
Thailand, Singapore and China will host the next events before the tour returns to the United States for the Founders Cup at Sharon Heights in Menlo Park, California.
A week after the first major in Houston, the LPGA will visit Mexico for the Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba on April 30-May 3.
Between the LPGA's European major stops will be the Women's Scottish Open on July 23-26 at Dundonald Links.
