Golf Tournaments – Your Quick Guide to the Latest Action

Whether you’re a seasoned fan or just getting into the game, keeping track of golf tournaments can feel overwhelming. There are dozens of events each year, from the big majors to regional opens, and each one has its own vibe. This guide breaks down the basics so you can know what’s coming, why it matters, and the easiest ways to watch.

What Makes a Golf Tournament Special

Every tournament has a story. The four majors – The Masters, PGA Championship, US Open and The Open Championship – are the most prestigious because they attract the world’s best players and offer the biggest prizes. Winning a major can cement a golfer’s legacy for life.

Beyond the majors, you’ll find World Golf Championships, which bring together top‑ranked players for a short, high‑stakes showdown. Then there are regular tour events on the PGA and European Tours that give up‑and‑coming players a chance to shine. Each event has its own course quirks: some favor big drivers, others reward precise iron play.

Fans also love the team formats like the Ryder Cup or Presidents Cup, where the pressure is on because you’re playing for a country or continent, not just yourself. Those events happen only once every two years, so they feel extra exciting.

How to Keep Up with Upcoming Tournaments

First, grab a reliable calendar. The official PGA Tour and European Tour sites publish full season schedules, and they’re easy to sync with your phone. Mark the dates for the majors, then fill in the surrounding events that interest you.

Second, set up alerts. Most sports apps let you pick specific tournaments or players and send you a push notification when a round starts. This way you won’t miss a live broadcast just because you forgot the time.

Third, choose a viewing method that fits your routine. If you prefer TV, channels like Sky Sports, Golf Channel or BBC Sport cover most major events. For online streaming, look for services that hold the rights in your region – a quick search will tell you whether you need a subscription or can watch for free.

Finally, join a community. Forums, social media groups, and our own Abbey Angels Sports Hub bring together fans who share tips, discuss scores and hype up the next round. Jumping into the conversation makes the tournament feel more personal.

With the calendar set, alerts on, and a viewing plan ready, you’ll never miss a swing. Keep an eye on the leaderboard, track your favorite players, and enjoy the drama of each tournament as it unfolds. The next big golf tournament is just around the corner – be ready for the action!
