The 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge begins on Thursday, May 28, with the opening round at Colonial Country Club in Texas. You can find the full Charles Schwab Challenge times for Thursday’s first round at the bottom of this post.
Included tee times for round 1
Rickie Fowler has six PGA Tour victories in his long career, but the last one came almost three years ago in the summer of 2023. His fifth win came four years earlier in 2019.
But Fowler hopes to change that statistic this week when he enters the Charles Schwab Challenge.
Before finishing T60 at the PGA Championship, the legendary champion had recorded three straight top 10s, including a T2 at the Truist Championship in early May. That strong performance pushed Fowler up to No. 19 in the FedEx Cup standings, giving him access to every major tournament.
The next step is to return to the winner’s circle.
Fowler will begin his first round on Thursday at 1:13 pm ET alongside Ben Griffin and Tom Hoge.
You can watch Thursday’s first round of the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge from 4-7 pm ET on Golf Channel. PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will offer exclusive early coverage beginning Thursday at 8 a.m. ET, in addition to featured group and featured hole coverage.
