2025 American Express Tournament Set to Begin in California

The PGA Tour returns to the mainland with a star-studded field competing across three courses for an $8.8 million purse.

The 2025 American Express Tournament will take place from January 16 to 19 in La Quinta, California, featuring a 156-player field.
Defending champion Nick Dunlap, who made history as an amateur winner in 2024, returns as a professional at age 20.
Top contenders include Patrick Cantlay, Sungjae Im, and Wyndham Clark, while Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele will miss the event due to injuries.
The tournament will utilize a three-course rotation—Pete Dye Stadium Course, La Quinta Country Club, and the Nicklaus Tournament Course—before the final round on Sunday.
Fans can watch live coverage on ESPN+ and Golf Channel, with broadcasts running from Thursday to Sunday between 4 and 7 p.m. Eastern.
