Imagine we live in a world where all professional golfers are available to buy stocks and shares in. You’ve just started a job as a junior associate at an investment company and you’ve been given $100 to start you off. Which players are you buying?
Then you have golfers like Jeeno Thitikul, Jon Rahm, Nelly Korda and Joaquin Niemann who are just below that top price but are capable of featuring in the same circles as Scheffler and McIlroy.
Moving down, golfers such as David Puig, Marco Penge and Lottie Woad are clearly destined for an extremely bright future and could be worth picking up at this price before they inevitably increase in cost over the coming years.
In the comments below, let us know how you’d set up your portfolio and which players you’d be looking to buy shares in ahead of the 2026 season. To help you out, four Golf Monthly writers have written down their respective plans.

I will make Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy 40% of my portfolio to ensure some safe returns as I’m confident both will continue to dominate the top of the men’s game for the next five years.
I think Jon Rahm is one of the greats of his generation with more Majors in him so I am happy to have him making up 12.5%, which is the same as Lottie Woad who will surely be a World No.1 and Major winner very soon.
Xander Schauffele and Ludvig Aberg each make up 10%, which should give a good return on investment in the medium term. Tom McKibbin will likely continue his rise in the game, especially after that superb Hong Kong Open victory recently, and I’m happy to put 5% into the Hojgaards as at least one of them will go on to win multiple PGA Tour titles, you would think.

LIV’s two other hot prospects Joesele Ballester and David Puig, both from Spain and Arizona State University, look to be future Ryder Cuppers and two of Europe’s top players who will have esteemed careers.
I think Marco Penge could be very successful in America,…
