The second week of February delivered one of the most compelling stretches of the 2026 golf season so far. From a remarkable comeback victory on the LIV Tour from Anthony Kim to Charley Hull making a statement win in women’s golf and a tightly contested PGA Tour showdown at Pebble Beach, the global golf landscape was full of momentum shifting moments.
Here is everything that shaped the world of golf this week.
Anthony Kim Completes a Stunning Comeback at LIV Golf Adelaide
The biggest story in golf this week came from Australia, where Anthony Kim captured the title at LIV Golf Adelaide for his first professional victory in nearly 16 years.
Kim closed with a brilliant bogey free 63 to finish at 23 under par, completing one of the most emotional and unlikely comebacks in modern golf. Once considered one of the brightest young stars in the sport, Kim stepped away from competitive golf for more than a decade due to injury and personal challenges. His return to contention has already been a major storyline in 2026, but this victory elevated it to something historic.
The win also provides a significant narrative boost for the LIV Golf League, which continues to battle for legitimacy in the professional golf ecosystem. Kim’s triumph is the kind of human story that transcends tour politics and reminds fans why they fell in love with the sport in the first place.
For many, this was more than a tournament win. It was redemption.
Charley Hull Wins PIF Saudi Ladies International
Women’s golf delivered a headline of its own as Charley Hull won the PIF Saudi Ladies International at Riyadh Golf Club.
Hull fired a final round 65 to surge to 19 under par and secure a one shot victory in one of the richest events on the Ladies European Tour schedule. A clutch back nine, highlighted by an eagle and several key birdies, sealed her fifth career LET title.
This win is significant for several reasons. It positions Hull as an early season force in global women’s golf and reinforces her status as one of Europe’s premier players heading into the LPGA and major championship season. She did not simply edge over the line, she took control when it mattered most and showed exactly why she remains one of the most consistent competitors in the women’s game.
Her performance was confident, aggressive, and composed under pressure, exactly the kind of golf required to win on today’s increasingly competitive women’s stage.
Hull’s victory came with TaylorMade Golf’s Qi4D LS driver in the bag, part of the brand’s latest carbon face technology platform. Her strong performance off the tee adds early season visibility to the Qi4D line as equipment interest builds heading into spring.
Collin Morikawa Wins at Pebble Beach and Moves to World No.5
Over on the PGA Tour, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am produced another compelling chapter in the early 2026 season.
Collin Morikawa delivered a statement performance at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, converting his weekend charge into victory at one of the PGA Tour’s most prestigious early season events.
After opening the door with a superb third round 62, Morikawa carried momentum into Sunday and closed with composure under pressure on one of golf’s most iconic stages. Winning at Pebble Beach carries historic weight, and adding his name to the trophy strengthens his already impressive resume, which includes two major championships.
The victory moves Morikawa up to World No. 5 in the Official World Golf Ranking, reinforcing his return to the very top tier of the men’s game.
Morikawa is also gaming the Qi4D LS driver from TaylorMade Golf, and his precision from the tee at Pebble Beach provided further high profile validation. Wins at iconic venues naturally amplify equipment exposure, particularly as attention begins to shift towards Augusta and the major season.

What’s Next in the 2026 Golf Season
With February momentum building, attention now turns to the next phase of the global golf calendar.
In the weeks ahead, the PGA Tour schedule intensifies as players position themselves for the first major of the year at Augusta in April. With Collin Morikawa now back inside the world’s top five and confidence flowing, the narrative heading towards The Masters is beginning to take shape.
If this week is any indication, 2026 could be a defining year across every major tour.
For golf fans, the season is officially in full swing.
