The 2026 Chevron Championship, the first LPGA major of the season, begins this week at Memorial Park Golf Course in Texas. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the tournament, including a full Chevron Championship TV schedule, streaming info and complete tee times as they are released.
How to watch Chevron Championship
The Chevron Championship has long served as the opening to LPGA major season. This year, it will be played at Memorial Park for the first time. The municipal course in Houston, Texas, has played host to PGA Tour events in the past. But now it can call itself a major championship venue.
The field consists of 132 of the top women’s players in the game. That includes defending champion Mao Saigo, who triumphed in a five-player playoff to win the 2025 Chevron.
Curious addition at LPGA’s first major has deeper meaning
The most interest, though, will be around the top three players in the world ranking: No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul, No. 2 Nelly Korda and No. 3 Hyo Joo Kim.
Thitikul will be vying for her first major win, while Korda, the 2024 Chevron champion, is hoping to capture her third major and take back the No. 1 ranking from Thitikul in the process.
Following an announcement early in the week, this year’s Chevron Championship purse is increasing by $1 million. The now-$9 million total purse features a hefty winner’s share of $1.35 million.
NBC and Golf Channel will provide TV coverage of the 2026 Chevron Championship, while Peacock will offer streaming coverage online. You can find complete information about streaming and TV options for the Chevron Championship below.
