The 2026 Valero Texas Open gets underway this week at TPC San Antonio in Texas. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the tournament, including a full Valero Texas Open TV schedule, streaming information and complete tee times for the first and second rounds once they are released.
How to watch Valero Texas Open
One way or another, this week’s Valero Texas Open is all about the 2026 Masters. Players head to Augusta National next week for the first major of the year. For those not already qualified for the Masters, the Texas Open represents the last chance to earn a spot in the field.
Four players earned Masters tee times on Sunday with the final Official World Golf Ranking cutoff after last week’s Houston Open.
That means there’s only one avenue for players to earn a Masters spot at TPC San Antonio this week: by winning it all.
That fact is likely top of mind for Rickie Fowler.
The six-time PGA Tour winner is currently not eligible for the Masters field. He’s played well so far in 2026, but not well enough to move into the Top 50 in the OWGR. If Fowler wants to compete at Augusta, he needs to win his seventh Tour title this week.
Other top players in the Texas Open field, such as betting favorite Tommy Fleetwood and Collin Morikawa, have already secured their Masters spots. They’ll use this week to prepare for a run at their first green jackets.
NBC and Golf Channel will provide TV coverage of the 2026 Valero Texas Open, while PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will offer streaming coverage and featured group coverage all week long. Peacock will air simulcasts of NBC’s Texas Open TV coverage.
