Dubai Invitational
The Dubai Invitational is a professional golf tournament played on the European Tour.
The tournament was revealed as part of the 2024 European Tour schedule announcement in August 2023. The tournament is a limited-field pro-am with 60 professionals playing alongside 60 amateurs in the first three rounds, with the final round taking place between the professionals only. The tournament will be played biannually.
Tommy Fleetwood won the inaugural edition, birdieing the final hole to beat Thriston Lawrence and Rory McIlroy by one shot. The inaugural event also gained attraction due to American club professional Ken Weyand being given a sponsor's invite into the event. He only managed to make two birdies during the week, finishing at 53-over-par; 72 shots behind the winning score.
