DP World Tour : India Championship Tee Times Leaderboard Weather
The inaugural DP World India Championship marks the continuation of an established international relationship for the DP World Tour.
Announced in April, the $4 million event - co-sanctioned with the Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI) - serves as the penultimate stop on the Back 9, in the lead up to the season-ending DP World Tour Play-Offs on the 2025 Race to Dubai schedule.
Featuring a star-studded international field, including Ryder Cup stars Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, Viktor Hovland and Shane Lowry alongside homegrown hero Shubhankar Sharma, the tournament marks a new chapter for professional golf in India.
Held at the historic Delhi Golf Club from October 16-19, it is the fourth tournament to be held in India on Golf’s Global Tour since our first visit in 2008.
Then becoming the 37th territory to stage a DP World Tour event, the EMAAR-MGF Indian Masters – subsequently titled the Avantha Masters from 2010-2013 – marked the first foray to the world’s most populous country.
This year is also the first time two different DP World Tour-sanctioned tournaments have been staged in India in the same year since the Johnnie Walker Classic made a visit to New Delhi later in the 2008 campaign.
Back then, DLF G&CC was the host venue, and it has since become a regular location, in particular through the long-standing Hero Indian Open, held earlier this season in March.
The national championship of India, first staged on the DP World Tour in 2015, is also co-sanctioned by the PGTI and has a $2.25m prize fund.
