DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – After 50 years, the European Tour is no more.

Starting in 2022, it will be rebranded as the DP World Tour in a deal that is set to double the total prize money — to more than $200 million.

European Tour chief executive Keith Pelley said the title change better reflects the global nature of the tour.

On the 2022 schedule, only 23 of the 47 events will be staged on European soil (click here to view full schedule).

“In many way, it’s a misnomer,” Pelley said of the European Tour’s current title. “We are definitely a world tour.”

Yeah, lest the whitewashing of political regimes continue… now the whole Tour is sponsored by a company based in Dubai…

DP World, a Dubai-based logistics company, has sponsored the season-ending event on the European Tour which has been held in Dubai since 2009 and called “The Race to Dubai.” It was previously the “Order of Merit.”
