The 2025 European Tour, titled as the 2025 DP World Tour for sponsorship reasons, is the 54th season of the European Tour, the main professional golf tour in Europe since its inaugural season in 1972.

It is the fourth season of the tour under a title sponsorship agreement with DP World that was announced in November 2021.[1]

Changes for 2025

The initial part of the schedule was announced in August 2024, with the "Opening Swing" events confirmed.[2] Tournaments in Australia and Southern Africa were confirmed, with the return of the Nedbank Golf Challenge, which had not been part of the 2024 season due to scheduling changes.[3] The Joburg Open and the Investec South African Open Championship were dropped from the Opening Swing, being rescheduled to March.[4] The remainder of the schedule was announced in November 2024.[5][6] As part of the announcement, it was confirmed that the Turkish Open and Austrian Open would return to the schedule for the first time since 2019 and 2021, respectively.
