Excitement builds as the Delhi Golf Club prepares for a historic golf tournament in October 2025.
A groundbreaking Rolex event will take place at the Delhi Golf Club in October 2025, featuring a stunning $5 million prize purse. This significant tournament will be the largest prize money ever awarded in Indian golf history and is expected to draw top talents, including Rory McIlroy. The event marks a comeback for India on the global golfing stage and a key milestone in promoting the sport within the country.
Golf fans, get ready for an exciting chapter in the sport’s history! The DP World Tour and the prestigious Delhi Golf Club are joining forces to bring a thrilling Rolex event to India in October 2025, and it comes with a jaw-dropping $5 million prize purse! This monumental announcement promises to place India firmly on the global golf map as it heralds the largest prize money ever awarded for a golf tournament within the country.
Mark your calendars for October 16-19, 2025, as this highly anticipated tournament rolls into town. With the official Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) set to be signed on January 22, 2025, by the DP World Tour’s Chief Tournament and Operations Officer, the wheels of excitement are already in motion. Negotiations for this incredible event reportedly kicked off back in October 2024, and it’s now all coming together beautifully.
This unnamed tournament is particularly significant as it stands to be the penultimate competition leading up to the DP World Tour playoffs. Following this magnificent event, golf enthusiasts can anticipate the Genesis Championship in Korea, slated for October 23-26, 2025.
After a two-year hiatus from hosting major international events, the Delhi Golf Club is ready for a comeback, and club captain Vikram Seth is exuding confidence that one of the sport’s biggest stars, Rory McIlroy, currently ranked World No. 3, will be in attendance. How exciting is that? McIlroy, who has never set foot in India before, expressed his interest in potentially joining this grand event!
While the Hero Indian Open, another event on the DP World Tour, has a respectable prize purse of $2.25 million, this upcoming tournament easily shatters that record and fortifies the country’s place in the global golfing community. With the remarkable leadership of club president Raj Khosla, this achievement is being celebrated as a significant opportunity for the club and a milestone for Indian golf.
As the countdown to this remarkable tournament continues, the DP World Tour’s calendar is steadily filling up. The Dubai Desert Classic, the next event scheduled right after the MoU signing, will continue the action. Meanwhile, gaps in the 2025 schedule are eagerly awaited to be filled with more thrilling competitions.
Before we even hit October, the Hero Indian Open is set for March 27-30, 2025 at DLF Golf and Country Club. And don’t forget, golf fans will be welcomed to experience Bryson DeChambeau making his debut in India at the Asian Tour’s International Series event in Gurugram from January 30 to February 2, 2025. The golfing scene is truly buzzing!
With Rory McIlroy receiving a special request to participate and expressing his intent to visit if possible, the event marks an important step in elevating golf’s scene in India. His consideration emphasizes the growing global interest in the country’s golfing potential. Perhaps this tournament will pave the way for more world-class events and inspire a new generation of golfers.
So, golf lovers, gear up for an exciting ride as the Delhi Golf Club prepares to welcome the world in October 2025. A historic tournament filled with thrilling moments awaits, and we can’t wait to watch the action unfold!
