Ever since the LPGA unveiled its 2026 schedule, it’s been the talk of the town. 33 tournaments and a Solheim Cup later in the season sounds hectic, to say the least. Sure, many would say the more opportunities, the better it is. But for top stars like Nelly Korda and Lydia Ko , the calendar leans less towards that and more towards a grind that will test their limits.
On the Monday Q Info podcast, host Ryan French hit the nail on the head when he asked LPGA star Alexa Pano about the schedule. He pointed out, like others have before, that the schedule is too “physically taxing” and that top players like Korda are “going to skip events.” And that defeats the purpose of the Tour, trying to achieve more visibility if the majority of the top women aren’t going to play that often.
