Final Signature Event of Season Kicks Off at Quail Hollow Ahead of PGA Championship
Broadcast schedules and streaming details released for the sixth Signature event of the 2026 season.
The PGA Tour has commenced its final Signature event of the 2026 season at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, positioning the tournament as the concluding tune-up before the upcoming PGA Championship. CBS Sports reports that the field features a robust line-up of contenders, including Rory McIlroy, Cameron Young, Matt Fitzpatrick, Xander Schauffele, Ludvig Åberg, Chris Gotterup, Tommy Fleetwood, and Justin Rose.
Notably, defending champion Scottie Scheffler is absent from the competition. The Dallas native has taken a week off following his runner-up finish at the Cadillac Championship, a decision consistent with his usual schedule management before playing two events in Texas. His absence leaves the field open for other top-ranked players to vie for the title.
Rory McIlroy is set to make his first start since securing his second green jacket at the Masters, marking a significant return to form after a three-week layoff. He joins last week's winner Cameron Young and Matt Fitzpatrick, who has recorded wins in his last two starts, in a contest that promises high stakes for the sixth Signature event of the season.
The tournament serves a dual purpose as a final test for the season's Signature events and a preparation ground for the PGA Championship, which is also scheduled to take place at Quail Hollow. This venue holds particular significance as the site where Scheffler claimed victory last year, adding a layer of historical context to the current proceedings.
Regarding media coverage, the PGA Tour has detailed specific broadcast windows for the event. PGA Tour Live coverage is scheduled to run from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Early television coverage on Golf Channel is set for 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., with live streaming available on GolfChannel.com during the same window.
Later in the day, CBS and Paramount+ will provide live television coverage from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., while live streaming options are available via CBSSports.com and the CBS Sports App. These arrangements ensure comprehensive access to the action in the Queen City as the field battles for the final Signature title of the year.
