PGA TOUR's October Asia Fest

Three world-class golf tournaments, three exciting and yet diverse destinations and a whopping US$26.5 million in total prize money on offer - welcome to the PGA TOUR’s annual October fest

Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka

It is becoming a wonderful tradition for the game in the Far East when fans can prepare to welcome and celebrate the best golfers on the planet, thanks largely to the PGA TOUR bandwagon which rolls into town in successive weeks with the CIMB Classic in Malaysia, CJ CUP @ NINE BRIDGES in South Korea and World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions in China.

Mega-events attract the biggest stars of the game who deliver the glitz, glam and fireworks on the fairways and it promises to be a glorious run of tournaments in a region widely acknowledged as the game’s most significant growth opportunity.

From Dustin Johnson to Justin Rose, Brooks Koepka to Justin Thomas, Francesco Molinari to Hideki Matsuyama and Patrick Reed to Rory McIlroy, many of these superstars have punched their tickets to Asia in chase of top dollar, earlyseason FedExCup points and ultimately be a part of a TOUR which is helping to grow the game around the world.

“The PGA TOUR is a global organisation, we’ve got a global membership and we are an important part of a global sport,” said Jay Monahan, PGA TOUR Commissioner.
