It’s still 2024, but the 2025 DP World Tour schedule is about to get underway.
The BMW Australian PGA Championship officially kicks off the new season and a double header Down Under.
Royal Queensland will play host to the first event of the Opening Swing and a strong home contingent heads the field.
LIV Golf’s Cam Smith is undoubtedly the star attraction, while his Ripper GC teammates Marc Leishman and Lucas Herbert are also in town.
Meanwhile, Min Woo Lee returns to defend his crown from 12 months ago.
The tournament dates back to 1929 and has since welcomed – and been won by – some of the game’s best ever players.
But it only became sanctioned by the DP World Tour in 2015.
Here is everything you need to know about the event…

The bunkered Bet
Cameron Smith 15/2
Very little splits the top of the market in Australia, but Smith has more than a standout chance. It’s a home game for the Ripper GC captain, who arrives in Queensland after a nice warm up at the NSW Open last week. Herbert beat him on Sunday, but Smith can reverse the form and claim a fourth title in this event – and a second at this venue.
Please gamble responsibly.
