About us
The DP World Tour is the main men’s professional golf Tour of the European Tour group, with a global schedule featuring a minimum of 43 tournaments in 21 different countries across the 2022 season. Formerly known as the European Tour, which was established in 1972, the 2022 DP World Tour schedule includes five Rolex Series events, along with four Major Championships, two World Golf Championship events and three tournaments co-sanctioned with the PGA TOUR, as well as tournaments staged around the world with a minimum prize of $2million for all events solely sanctioned by the DP World Tour. The season concludes with the final Rolex Series event, the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai, where the winner of the Tour’s season-long competition, the DP World Tour Rankings, will be crowned. Headquartered at the iconic Wentworth Club in Surrey, our employees work across the globe as part of a shared commitment to Drive Golf Further. We do this by being innovative, inclusive and global in everything we do. Examples include developing new tournament formats that brings men’s, women’s and disability golf together, bringing fans closer to the world’s best players through award winning social media content and new technologies to increase fan engagement, and championing sustainability in golf through our Green Drive initiative. DP World, the leading provider of global smart end-to-end supply chain and logistics solutions, is the title partner of the DP World Tour, which is administered by the European Tour group.

At the G4D Open today we hosted several children with arm limb difference who, thanks to the team at EDGA Golf and Koalaa soft prosthetics, had prototype prosthetics made that enabled them to swing a golf club for the first time. Incredible to watch them play and the feedback received will help thousands of other children going forwards. The team from children’s focused news show FYI on Sky also stopped by to cover the event, so watch out for that TV feature coming soon! #inclusion #golf
