The 2026 Tour Championship begins Thursday with the opening round at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. You can find full Tour Championship tee times for Thursday’s first round at the bottom of this post.
At last week’s BMW Championship, Wyndham Clark captured his third PGA Tour victory of the season. Unfortunately for him, it wasn’t enough to top Scottie Scheffler on the season-long points list. But at the Tour Championship, none of that matters.
Whoever finishes in first at East Lake will win the 2026 FedEx Cup title. If Clark were to pull it off, it would give him his first FedEx Cup title, and he’d head home with a $10 million check.
Not only that, a fourth win and Cup title could see Clark jump past Scheffler in the Player of the Year race.
Clark will tee off for Round 1 on Thursday at 1:48 p.m. ET alongside Cameron Young.
You can watch Thursday’s first round of the 2026 Tour Championship from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. ET on ESPN, and then 1-6 p.m. ET on Golf Channel.
