DP World Tour 2027 Schedule: These Tournaments Will Define the New Season

The 2027 DP World Tour calendar combines global reach with the return of traditional national open tournaments. A total of 42 tournaments in 24 countries are on the Race to Dubai schedule. Three established events—the Singapore Open, the Hong Kong Open, and the Open de Portugal—are making a comeback. At the same time, the Ryder Cup in Ireland and new dates for the Irish Open, the Open de France, and the BMW PGA Championship will serve as special highlights throughout the season.

The season begins in late November 2026 with the BMW Australian PGA Championship and ends in November 2027 with the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai. Some dates are currently still marked “TBC” – “to be confirmed.”

The 2027 DP World Tour Tour Calendar at a Glance

Key dates for the new season:

• 42 tournaments in 24 countries
• 17 national Opens on the global calendar
• Season opener: the BMW Australian PGA Championship, November 26–29, 2026
• Season finale with the DP World Tour Championship from November 11–14, 2027
• The Ryder Cup from September 17–19, 2027, at Adare Manor, Ireland
• Joint hosting of the Singapore Open and the Hong Kong Open with the Asian Tour
• Several dates in March, August, and October have yet to be confirmed

The DP World Tour is thus continuing its international focus. At the same time, it is placing greater emphasis on traditional national championships. In this context, Tour CEO Guy Kinnings refers to it as “Golf’s Global Tour.”

Three historic tournaments are making a comeback

The Singapore Open is making a comeback

The Deutsche Bank Singapore Open will take place April 15–18, 2027, at the Sentosa Golf Club. The tournament was founded in 1961 and is one of the most historic national opens in Asia. The event was previously co-hosted with the DP World Tour between 2009 and 2012.

In 2027, the Singapore Open will return to the calendar as part of the Asian Swing. It will be co-hosted with the Asian Tour, exemplifying the closer collaboration between the two tours.

The Open de Portugal is once again part of the European Swing

The Open de Portugal | Cascais-Lisboa will be held May 13–16, 2027, at the Oitavos Dunes Links Golf Course in Cascais. The Portuguese National Open was founded in 1953 and had not been part of the calendar since 2020.

With its return, the Open de Portugal adds another historic tournament to the European Swing. In total, it has been part of the DP World Tour schedule 38 times since the tour’s founding in 1972.

The Hong Kong Open Returns After Several Years

The Hong Kong Open will take place from October 21 to 24, 2027, at the Hong Kong Golf Club. The tournament was launched in 1959 and had not been on the DP World Tour calendar since 2019.

In total, the Hong Kong Open has been co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and the Asian Tour 18 times. In 2027, it will once again be part of this partnership and will serve as a major highlight of the fall season.

The new partnership with the Asian Tour

The return of the Singapore Open and the Hong Kong Open is part of the strategic alliance between the PGA Tour, the DP World Tour, and the Asian Tour. The three Tours agreed to this partnership in July. It is intended to create additional commercial and sporting opportunities through 2029 and, among other things, open up pathways for Asian Tour players to compete in European tournaments.

Guy Kinnings, Chief Executive of the DP World Tour, explains: “The return of the historic national Opens in Singapore and Portugal means that 17 prestigious national Opens will be featured on our 2027 global calendar—alongside other popular international championships and tournaments around the world.”

The calendar is thus designed to combine two goals: providing the most international stage possible for the players and establishing a stronger presence in the golf markets of individual countries.

The Ryder Cup Changes the Course of the Season

The Ryder Cup is the central event of the 2027 calendar year. The showdown between Europe and the U.S. will take place from September 17 to 19 at Adare Manor in Ireland. Because the Ryder Cup is being held earlier in September than in many other years, several major tournaments have been rescheduled.

The Irish Open moves to July

The Amgen Irish Open will take place from July 1–4, 2027, at The K Club in Straffan, County Kildare. This means the tournament will move from September to July for one season and become part of the Closing Swing.

The new date creates a particularly attractive sequence of European golf weeks:

1. The Amgen Irish Open: July 1–4
2. The Genesis Scottish Open: July 8–11
3. The 155th Open Championship: July 15–18 at the Old Course in St. Andrews

The Irish Open thus marks the start of a three-week stretch that culminates in the Open Championship. Rory McIlroy has already indicated that he intends to play in the tournament on the new dates. When asked about his participation, he said, “I’ll obviously be there; I’ll play.”

At the same time, the scheduling is likely to influence the season plans of some top players. There is a very dense sequence of tournaments between the U.S. Open, the Travelers Championship, the Irish Open, the Scottish Open, and the Open Championship. Whether all the top players will compete at every stop will only become clear as the season progresses.

The Open de France will take place before the Ryder Cup

The FedEx Open de France will be held from September 9 to 12, 2027, at Le Golf National. The tournament will thus take place one week before the Ryder Cup. Le Golf National previously hosted the 2018 Ryder Cup. Being held immediately before the transatlantic showdown brings additional attention to the Open de France. At the same time, it can serve as a final important stop for European players before the Ryder Cup.

The BMW PGA Championship follows immediately after the Ryder Cup

The BMW PGA Championship will take place from September 23 to 26, 2027, at the Wentworth Club in England—and thus during the week immediately following the Ryder Cup. The tournament is the third Rolex Series event of the season. It follows the Hero Dubai Desert Classic, January 21–24, and the Genesis Scottish Open, July 8–11.

The proximity between Adare Manor and Wentworth opens up an interesting sporting prospect: Many European Ryder Cup players could compete in the BMW PGA Championship immediately after the transatlantic showdown. The question of whether American players will stay in Europe for the tournament is also likely to be a topic of discussion in the run-up to the event.

The Major Tournaments of the Rolex Series and the Playoffs

Among the sporting highlights of the 2027 DP World Tour Tour calendar are the three Rolex Series tournaments:

• The Hero Dubai Desert Classic: January 21–24, Dubai
• The Genesis Scottish Open: July 8–11, North Berwick
• The BMW PGA Championship: September 23–26, Wentworth Club

At the end of the season, the Race to Dubai will be decided in the Playoffs. The series kicks off with the Abu Dhabi Championship from November 4–7 at Yas Links. One week later, the DP World Tour Championship will take place from November 11–14 on the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai.

Key Changes in the New Schedule

The new schedule features several key highlights. The return of the Singapore Open and the Hong Kong Open strengthens the DP World Tour’s presence in Asia. The Open de Portugal also brings a traditional national open back to the European Swing.

The Ryder Cup has an even greater impact on the European season’s schedule. The Irish Open takes place in July, the Open de France is held immediately before the Ryder Cup, and the BMW PGA Championship follows right after. This creates particularly notable blocks of tournaments both in the summer and in September.

The published calendar does not explicitly mention several events that were included in previous schedules. These include, among others, the Hero Indian Open, the Danish Golf Championship, the Genesis Championship, the Austrian Alpine Open, and the Nexo Championship. Since the available information does not contain a definitive official statement regarding these changes, these events should not be considered definitively canceled without further confirmation.

A Global Calendar with a Strong Focus on the Ryder Cup

The 2027 DP World Tour calendar represents a blend of international expansion and a return to the traditions of national opens. With 42 tournaments in 24 countries, the Tour remains true to its global vision. At the same time, the return of the Singapore Open, the Hong Kong Open, and the Open de Portugal lends the schedule additional historical significance.

The sporting highlight is the Ryder Cup in Ireland. Its date has prompted the rescheduling of several major events, creating a special sequence centered around the Irish Open, the Scottish Open, the Open Championship, the Open de France, and the BMW PGA Championship. As a result, the 2027 calendar offers not only many international stops but also several clearly identifiable highlights for fans.
