McIlroy headlines summer of golf with DeChambeau targeted
The return of grand slam winner Rory McIlroy and the first Australian PGA Championship in Sydney this century highlights a 19-event summer of golf starting this month.
Rory McIlroy is set to headline a summer of golf in Australia, with Bryson DeChambeau a target for the PGA Championship in Sydney. The 19-event PGA Tour of Australasia schedule kicks off in August with the PNG Open at Royal Port Moresby Golf Club, followed by stops across mainland Australia and New Zealand. McIlroy, who returns to the Melbourne fairways for the Kingston Heath event from December 3–6, will compete against DeChambeau at the PGA Championship at The Lakes possibly in 2024.
The season concludes with the Australian PGA Championship at The Lakes Golf Club on November 26–29. Co-sanctioned by the European Tour, the Australasian Tour marks a record partnership and includes the Race to Dubai, the tour's season-long rankings competition.
