While some locations have changed, the 2026 Professional Women's Bowling Association (PWBA) Tour season matches the 2025 season with 12 title events scheduled in eight cities.[1] These include eight standard singles title events, three major title events, and one mixed doubles event. Final rounds of the season's three majors (USBC Queens, U.S. Women's Open and PWBA Tour Championship) will be broadcast on national television. All other events are broadcast on BowlTV, the USBC’s YouTube channel.
Two of the Tour stops feature three events each. The PWBA Summer Series – Rochester (held in nearby Gates, New York) will have three events between May 27 and June 1. The PWBA Tour Championship Week in August begins with two standard, open events. The third event, the PWBA Tour Championship major, has a 24-player starting field composed of all the season’s title winners, plus the top season points-earners among non-winners.
