The fourth phase of the DP World Tour season, the European Swing, begins with the Soudal Open at Rinkven International Golf Club in Belgium.
The start of a new phase of the season means there is another opportunity for those competing in it to finish top of the table at its conclusion with July’s BMW International Open. That will hand the winner a bonus $200,000.
Swede Sebastian Soderberg won the previous phase, the Asian Swing, which also earned him an exemption into each of the season’s Back 9 events, and that incentive is also available to the winner of the European Swing.
There is also an eye-catching prize fund at this week’s tournament, with players competing for a payout of $2.25m – an identical sum to the purse that was available at the previous tournament, the Volvo China Open.
On that occasion, Adrian Otaegui won the first prize of $382,500, and the same amount is on offer to this week’s winner, while the runner-up will claim $247,500. The fund also represents an increase of $250,000 on the 2023 tournament.
There are also 3,000 Race To Dubai points available at the tournament, as well as the opportunity the stars to climb the world rankings.
Below is the prize money payout for the Soudal Open.
