Solheim Cup at Bernardus dates announced: September 11-13, 2026 | Golfers Magazine

The 2026 edition will be the 20th time that the Solheim Cup is played. After tournaments in Spain (2023) and Virginia in the United States (2024), Bernardus Golf the home base for the next European edition. Preparations are in full swing to create an unforgettable sporting event and now everyone knows when exactly the event will take place. The dates for the 20th edition of the Solheim Cup have been confirmed: 11-13 September 2026.

A world podium at Bernardus Golf

Bernardus Golf has quickly established itself as a top destination for international golf events, following the successful hosting of the KLM Open from 2021 to 2023 on the DP World Tour. With its Kyle Phillips-designed championship course, a heathland design with unparalleled facilities, challenging water hazards, a compact layout and an architectural clubhouse, Bernardus offers an outstanding golfing experience. The restaurant even has a Michelin star, making Bernardus the perfect location for the Solheim Cup. Furthermore, Bernardus Golf was voted the number 1 golf course in the Netherlands by Leading Courses this year.

Sabine Riezebos, general manager of Bernardus, who is currently at the Solheim Cup in the United States herself, adds:

“It doesn’t get any better than this. What powerful women are fighting for their team here. For us, the countdown can now begin to a world-class top sporting event. The atmosphere is indescribably good and unites golf enthusiasts from all over the world. You have to experience it for yourself in 2026, otherwise you will suffer from fomo (fear of missing out). We thoroughly enjoyed our first American Solheim Cup this week at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club. Our team will use all the experience gained there, as well as that of our visit to Finca Cortesin in 2023, to deliver the best European edition to date together with the NGF and IMG.”

Special collaboration and vision for the future

This will be the first edition organised in partnership with IMG. IMG has been appointed by the Ladies European Tour (LET) as the operating partner of the European Solheim Cup for an initial period from 2026 until the end of 2038. Together with the NGF, Bernardus, LET and IMG, the aim is to organise a world-class Solheim Cup in 2026. It will become a benchmark for women’s sporting events. The Solheim Cup must have a long-lasting positive impact on Bernardus Golf, Dutch golf, the Netherlands and the local environment.
