The DP World Tour has revealed changes to its global 2025 schedule, including the return of two national opens and a host of new venues.
The European-based circuit will stage 42 Race to Dubai events across 26 different countries next year, with a record total prize purse of $153million excluding majors.
As first introduced this season, the calendar will follow a schedule split up into five ‘Global Swings’- which run from November to August – the ‘Back 9’ in the autumn and then two DP World Tour playoffs. The Turkish Open will return for the first time in six years, with the Austrian Open also back on the calendar for the first time since 2021.
There is no place, however, for the European Open, Andalucia Masters or the Scandinavian Mixed event as things stand.
Among the other notable changes, the FedEx Open de France moves to Golf de Saint-Nom-La-Breteche for the first time since 1982 due to work taking place at Le Golf National. The Amgen Irish Open will return to the K Club after a successful move to Royal County Down this year.
• When will Tiger Woods play next?
• When will Rory McIlroy play next?
The Race to Dubai season will end, as it does in 2024, with a November finale in the Middle East comprising of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship and the DP World Tour Championship.
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.
“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.”
