2026 golf majors: Dates, places for Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open and British Open

It may seem like a ways off but before you know it, the four men's golf majors will be back.

The 2026 major venues are some really good ones, with the first one of the season at its normal spot at that famous place in Georgia and the last at a historic layout in England. In between are two East Coast majors held about a month apart.
