If you've been watching the Paralympics coverage in the UK and been tuning in to The Last Leg comedy show each evening on Channel 4, you would have seen the G4D Tour (Golf for the Disabled) featured over two nights, where presenters Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker and comedians Maisie Adam and Josh Pugh learn how to play golf at London Golf Club with the help of G4D Tour players Brendan Lawlor and Mike Browne. Both Alex and Josh P have a disability, and showed how golf really is a game for everyone. Here's a little behind the scenes video...

The DP World Tour is the main men’s professional golf Tour of the European Tour group, with a global schedule featuring a minimum of 43 tournaments in 21 different countries across the 2022 season. Formerly known as the European Tour, which was established in 1972, the 2022 DP World Tour schedule includes five Rolex Series events, along with four Major Championships, two World Golf Championship events and three tournaments co-sanctioned with the PGA TOUR, as well as tournaments staged around the world with a minimum prize of $2million for all events solely sanctioned by the DP World Tour. The season concludes with the final Rolex Series event, the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai, where the winner of the Tour’s season-long competition, the DP World Tour Rankings, will be crowned. Headquartered at the iconic Wentworth Club in Surrey, our employees work across the globe as part of a shared commitment to Drive Golf Further. We do this by being innovative, inclusive and global in everything we do.

Last week’s Danish Golf Championship embraced our Green Drive sustainability agenda by removing diesel generators from the tournament site. In their place was one giant 380 kWh battery - with the equivalent power of 30,000 phone chargers - which in turn got its power from 100% renewable sources through the local grid. This was a first for a pro golf tournament and is another example of how innovation is helping us get to net zero carbon by 2040. #Sustainability #DPWorldTour #Denmark Danish.Golf

With the Paralympics starting this week, it is apt that our G4D Tour players Brendan Lawlor and Mike Browne were at London Golf Club last week filming with Channel 4 show The Last Leg, for a special golf segment that is airing this week (straight after their Paralympics coverage). A little preview is below for you...can Brendan and Mike, aided by Mark Taylor of EDGA Golf, get the presenters Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker and comedians Maisie Adam and Josh Pugh (looking very professional in their J.LINDEBERG gear btw), ready to tackle the daunting first hole of the International Course as complete novices? #golf #inclusion #thelastleg #channel4 #g4dtour #dpworldtour Open Mike Productions Ltd

The DP World Tour today confirmed that Major Champions Francesco Molinari and Justin Rose have been named as the Playing Captains for the second edition of the Team Cup, which will take place on the National Course at Abu Dhabi Golf Resort from January 10-12, 2025. Molinari captained Continental Europe to victory two years ago and will go head-to-head with his Ryder Cup teammate Rose, who assumes the Great Britain & Ireland captaincy for the first time. The pair will lead respective teams of ten DP World Tour Members in the three-day match play contest, with Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald also presiding over proceedings in the United Arab Emirates as he did in 2023.

Great to see the 2023 Ryder Cup continuing to be acknowledged by industry peers. For the second year in a row, representatives from the European Tour group will be vying for silverware at the Leaders in Sport Awards in October, with The Ryder Cup nominated in the Entertainment Experience category (we were a finalist in the Inclusion category for the G4D Tour in 2023). Fingers crossed we can add to the impressive six industry awards the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome has already won this year. 🤞 🏆 #LeadersSportsAwards #sportsbiz #golf
