DP World Tour announces its 2025 global tournament schedule

12th November 2024
Featuring a minimum of 42 Race to Dubai tournaments in a minimum of 26 different countries, the schedule will see DP World Tour members compete for a record total prize fund of $153million outside the Major Championships. For the second consecutive season, the schedule will comprise three distinct phases, beginning with five ‘Global Swings’ followed by the ‘Back 9’, with the season then culminating with the ‘DP World Tour Play-Offs’ in November 2025. The Turkish Open, which will be played at Regnum Carya Golf & Spa Resort from May 8-11, marks the DP World Tour’s return to Turkey for the first time in six years, following seven previous editions of the tournament played consecutively from 2013 to 2019. The Austrian Alpine Open presented by SalzburgerLand, at Gut Altentann Golf Club from May 29 – June 1, also sees the Tour return to Austria for the first time since 2021. It will be the 23rd edition overall of Austria’s national Open, which first featured on the schedule when Bernhard Langer won the title 1990. Both tournaments will feature in the ‘European Swing’ – one of five Global Swings which form Phase One of the DP World Tour’s global schedule again in 2025. Meanwhile, as previously announced, the Nedbank Golf Challenge, in South Africa, also returns to the schedule and will be the middle event of the ‘Opening Swing’ at the end of the current 2024 calendar year. The Opening Swing begins with the season-launching BMW Australian PGA Championship at Royal Queensland Golf Club in Brisbane from November 21-24, 2024. Each Global Swing has its own identity and its own champion, with exemptions into Rolex Series events and the second phase of the season – ‘the Back 9’ – also available. The ‘Back 9’ events across the autumn then give players the opportunity to secure their places in the season-ending DP World Tour Play-Offs comprising back-to-back Rolex Series events in the Middle East, the Abu Dhabi Championship (November 6-9) and the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai (November 13-16). Three Rolex Series events take place earlier in the season: the Hero Dubai Desert Classic (January 16-19), the Genesis Scottish Open (July 10-13) – which is co-sanctioned with the PGA TOUR – and the BMW PGA Championship (September 11-14). Also on the calendar in 2025 are two team match play contests – the Team Cup, which takes place at Abu Dhabi Golf Club from January 10-12 – and the 2025 Ryder Cup, when Luke Donald’s European team will attempt to retain the trophy against Keegan Bradley’s United States team at Bethpage Black in New York, from September 26-28. Some new venues also feature on the 2025 schedule. In the ‘Back 9’, the FedEx Open de France, continental Europe’s oldest national Open, moves to Golf de Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche for its 107th edition due to work taking place at Le Golf National. It is the first time the tournament has been played there since 1982 when Seve Ballesteros was triumphant. Also in the ‘Back 9’, the Amgen

Legends Tour announces 2025 schedule

25th October 2024
The Legends Tour has unveiled its first wave of tournaments scheduled for the 2025 season including two new events and an eye-watering prize pool for senior professionals. Legends Tour also continues to offer keen amateurs the greatest amateur experience in sport, playing alongside Legends of the game in stunning locations. The globetrotting schedule will start with the 2025 Legends Tour Qualifying School played at Gloria Hotel and Resorts, Belek, Turkey (13th -20th January). Following this, sixteen additional tournaments have been confirmed including Barbados, Vietnam, Zambia, Greece, Ireland, France, Italy, Mexico and India. New tournaments include the Marbella Legends at Aloha Golf Club, in Spain (14th -16th February) and the NI Legends Open to be played at Galgorm, Ballymena (29th -31st August), with more additions to be announced later this year. They join Legends Tour staples such as the flagship Staysure PGA Seniors Championship which will return to Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeen (31st July-3rd August) for its third year following the success of previous year’s events and the OFX Irish Legends hosted on the championship course at Mount Juliet Estate (16th – 17th May), which has previously been the venue for five Irish Opens and two World Golf Championships. Many of the Legends Tour’s brightest stars will be eyeing up Major victory in 2025 at the Senior PGA Championship at Congressional Country Club, Bethesda (22nd -25th May), the US Senior Open at The Broadmoor Golf Club, Colorado Springs (26th -29th June), and The Senior Open returning to Sunningdale Golf Club, Berkshire (24th -27th July). As well as the tournament silverware, some of golf’s biggest names will also be competing for the largest prize pool in Legends Tour history. The €20million (more than €10million of which will be assigned outside of the Majors of senior men’s golf – the Senior PGA Championship, the US Senior Open and The Senior Open) represents a 16% increase in prize funds year-on-year. Complementing the drama of the professional events will be the unique Legends Experience where passionate amateurs can tee off alongside their heroes in the Tour’s one-of-a-kind pro -am experience. Amateurs live the life of a professional golfer, playing in tournament conditions in-front of the crowds and TV cameras with access to the players’ lounge and locker room, private coaching clinics with our Legends and practice on the players’ range. Amateurs will also enjoy world-class hospitality and attend VIP functions, such as evenings hosted by Ryder Cup Legends. The Legends Experience has now been rolled out to 11 tournaments across the globe. The Luxe Scot Celebrity Pro-Am will also return to the OFX Irish Legends and the Staysure PGA Seniors Championship and features stars from the world of sport and entertainment competing to raise money and awareness for their chosen charities. Phil Harrison, CEO of the Legends Tour, said: “Over the summer we have been working hard and 2025 promises to be another incredible year for the Legends Tour. “Securing new events in some truly spectacular venues around the world is always a

Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis Course to host 2025 Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship

4th October 2024
The Championship will return to Dubai and the Middle East for the second time after its debut in the region in 2021. The field is comprised annually of the top male amateurs in the Asia-Pacific region representing the 43 Asia-Pacific Golf Confederation affiliated organisations. The champion of the 2025 Asia-Pacific Amateur will receive an invitation to compete in the following year’s Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club and an exemption into The 154th Open at Royal Birkdale. The runner(s)-up will gain a place in Final Qualifying for The Open. Christopher May, CEO, Dubai Golf said “We are honoured to host the 2025 Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship at Emirates Golf Club. With our rich history of staging world-class events, the Majlis course is the perfect venue to showcase the incredible talent of the region’s top amateur players. We look forward to welcoming them as they compete for the chance to earn invitations to the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club and The Open Championship at Royal Birkdale.” Return to UAE “We have a proud tradition of hosting the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship at world-class venues and are continuing that with the hosting of the 2025 edition at Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis Course,” said Taimur Hassan Amin, Chairman of the Asia-Pacific Golf Confederation, on behalf of the Founding Partners. “Dubai and the United Arab Emirates have a rich history of golf in the region, including the 2021 Asia-Pacific Amateur won by Keita Nakajima, and we are thrilled to watch some of the best players in the world return next year.” Notable past competitors include Hideki Matsuyama, a two-time winner of the Asia-Pacific Amateur and the 2021 Masters champion, and Cameron Smith, champion of The 150th Open. Other top players that have used the Asia-Pacific Amateur as a springboard to a notable professional career include Australia’s Cameron Davis and Min Woo Lee, Chinese Taipei’s C.T. Pan, the Republic of Korea’s Si-Woo Kim and Kyoung-Hoon Lee, Japan’s Takumi Kanaya and Keita Nakajima and New Zealand’s Ryan Fox. Collectively, alumni of the Championship have gone on to win 27 tournaments on the PGA Tour to date and more than 130 events across major professional tours. Growth in the region “Bringing the collection of talent from across the Asia-Pacific region to Emirates Golf Club in 2025 will be an honor,” said General Abdullah Al Hashmi, Vice Chairman of the Emirates Golf Federation. “We have seen firsthand the growth of golf and a number of prestigious tournaments in the United Arab Emirates over the years and we are excited for the 2025 Asia-Pacific Amateur to continue that legacy.” Designed by Karl Litten and established in 1988 as the first grass course in the Middle East, Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis Course is located south of downtown Dubai and enjoys views of the city’s skyline. The Majlis Course annually serves as the host of the DP World Tour’s Dubai Desert Classic, an event won by the likes of Seve Ballesteros, Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Ernie Els, the latter
