Perspective
The series was unveiled for the 2017 season and began with eight events, all with elevated purses in comparison with regular events on the European Tour. The minimum purse for each event was US$7,000,000, with the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai having an $8 million purse.[1][2]
The inaugural events as part of the series were:
- BMW PGA Championship
- HNA Open de France
- Dubai Duty Free Irish Open
- Genesis Scottish Open
- Italian Open
- The three limited-field no-cut events at the end of the season, which had previously been collectively known as the Final Series:
From the 2019 season onwards, the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship became a designated Rolex Series event and the Open de France was relegated to a regular tour event.[3] In 2020, the season was severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic; as a result, the Turkish Airlines Open and the Nedbank Golf Challenge were cancelled, and the Irish and Italian Opens were downgraded to regular events.[4]
In 2021, the Rolex Series was reduced to four tournaments; the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, the Scottish Open, the BMW PGA Championship and the season-ending DP World Tour Championship, Dubai. The four events did have increased prize funds up to $8 million however.[5] The Dubai Desert Classic was added to the series for the 2022 season.[6]
In 2023, all Rolex Series purses were increased to $9 million.[7]
