The DP World Tour’s 2025 season ‘Opening Swing’ has been announced and there are a few changes from the 2024 edition.
Five southern hemisphere events in late 2024 will mark the start of the 2025 season, with back-to-back events in Australia to kick things off., starting with the Australian PGA Championship at Brisbane’s Royal Queensland Golf Club from 21-24 November, followed a week later by the ISPS HANDA Australian Open at Mebourne’s Kingston Heath Golf Club and Victoria Golf Club.
Both these events are co-sanctioned with the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia, and then the Tour moves west to South Africa for the Nedbank Golf Challenge at Gary Player Country Club in Sun City from 5-8 December, with the Alfred Dunhill Championship at Leopard Creek the following week.
Both of these events are co-sanctioned with the Sunshine Tour, as is the ‘Opening Swing’s’ concluding event, the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open at Mont Choisy Le Golf, held on the Indian Ocean island nation the week before Christmas.
The good news for fans is that the conflicting Australian and South African events that featured in the 2024 season are no more, and instead, the The Joburg Open and Investec South African Open Championship which were held simultaneous to the Australian PGA and Australian Open, will feature at a later to-be-confirmed date on the DP World Tour schedule.
