The DP World Tour has unveiled its 2025 schedule which sees the return of two old favorites and a record total prize fund of over $150 million.
In a 42-event calendar – minimum – taking in at least 26 different countries, players will once again have the option of competing at the Turkish Open and the Austrian Open while several new locations will be used across the season as the likes of the Open de France, the Irish Open, and the Italian Open all switch golf courses.
Plus, DP World Tour members will compete for a record total prize fund of $153 million outside of the Major championships next season.
The new campaign, which begins on November 21 with the BMW Australian PGA Championship at Royal Queensland Golf Club in Brisbane, will once again consist of ‘Global Swings’, the ‘Back Nine’, and ‘DP World Tour Play-Offs.’
Guy Kinnings, the DP World Tour’s Chief Executive, said: “Our 2025 schedule once again demonstrates and celebrates the truly global nature of the DP World Tour.
◾️ Minimum of 42 tournaments in a minimum of 26 different countries◾️ Austrian and Turkish Opens return, as does the Nedbank Golf Challenge◾️ ‘Global Swings’, the ‘Back 9’ and the ‘DP World Tour Play-Offs’ form three phasesView the full 2025 schedule 👇November 12, 2024
“The introduction of the Global Swings in the current season has given us a strong, clear narrative that showcases the diversity of our membership and the places and cultures we visit. This will be further enhanced through the return of national Opens in Turkey and Austria in the first phase of our 2025 season.
“Then, as we have seen in recent weeks with great success in terms of attendance, viewing figures and compelling drama, the Back 9 provides a real opportunity for our Tour internationally as we build momentum into the Play-Offs. We therefore also look forward to building on this in our 2025 season.”
