DP World Tour returns; the European Swing..

 The 2024 season on the DP World Tour features a minimum of 44 tournaments in 24 countries and across five continents, underlining its status as golf’s global Tour.

With the PGA Championship over he European Swing marks the fourth of five Global Swings on the 2024 Race to Dubai as the DP World Tour arrives in Europe for the first time this season. 

Running from the Soudal Open to the BMW International Open, the Swing features six counting events in five countries with 3,000 Race to Dubai Ranking points on offer at each and a host of strong incentives for the ultimate Swing Champion.

Starting off in Belgium, the DP World Tour returns to Rinkven International for a fifth time for the Soudal Open May 23-26, before heading to Green Eagle Golf Courses - the longest test on Tour - for the European Open May 30 -June 2  in the first of two German events in this Swing.

The Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed June 6-9 will then bring some of the top male and female golfers together as the Tour returns to Vasatorps Golfklubb in Sweden for the first time this century, before the best in the game assemble for the U.S. Open (which is non-counting for Swing Rankings) at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina June 13-16

Following the penultimate men’s Major Championship of the season, the DP World Tour makes its way to The Netherlands for the KLM Open at The International June 20-23 before moving down to the Adriatic Golf Club in Italy for the Italian Open June 26-29

The final event, which will see a Swing Champion crowned, will see the Tour then return to Germany and Golfclub Munchen Echeneid for the BMW International Open July 4-7

Min Woo Lee carried over an encouraging end-of-season form from 2023 into the 2024 DP World Tour season as he won the Opening Swing after starring on home soil.

Rory McIlroy

Like Lee, Rory McIlroy's performance in the first two events of 2024 set the tone and made him the man to catch at the top of the International Swing Rankings.

 Sebastian Söderberg topped the Asian Swing Rankings after a consistent campaign. The Swede, who opened the Asian Swing with a tie for 21st at the Porsche Singapore Open, recorded back-to-back runner-up finishes at the Hero Indian Open and ISPS HANDA Championship before ending the Swing with a third place at the Volvo China Open to claim his place as Swing Champion.
