The Legends Tour has unveiled its first wave of tournaments scheduled for the 2025 season and the NI Legends at Galgorm is one of two new events along with an eye-watering prize pool for senior professionals.
The Legends Tour also continues to offer keen amateurs the greatest amateur experience in sport, playing alongside Legends of the game in stunning locations.
The globetrotting schedule will start with the 2025 Legends Tour Qualifying School played at Gloria Hotel and Resorts, Belek, Turkey (13th-20th January). Following this, sixteen additional tournaments have been confirmed including Barbados, Vietnam, Zambia, Greece, Ireland, France, Italy, Mexico and India.
Along with the new NI Legends which will take place at the Ballymena resort from 29-31 August, the Marbella Legends at Aloha Golf Club, in Spain will feature in mid-Feburary and more additions are set to be announced later this year.
They join Legends Tour staples such as the flagship Staysure PGA Seniors Championship which will return to Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeen (31st July-3rd August) for its third year following the success of previous year’s events and the OFX Irish Legends hosted on the championship course at Mount Juliet Estate (16th – 17th May), which has previously been the venue for five Irish Opens and two World Golf Championships.
Many of the Legends Tour’s brightest stars will be eyeing up Major victory in 2025 at the Senior PGA Championship at Congressional Country Club, Bethesda (22nd-25th May), the US Senior Open at The Broadmoor Golf Club, Colorado Springs (26th-29th June), and The Senior Open returning to Sunningdale Golf Club, Berkshire (24th-27th July).
As well as the tournament silverware, some of golf’s biggest names will also be competing for the largest prize pool in Legends Tour history. The €20million (more than €10million of which will be assigned outside of the Majors of senior men’s golf – the Senior PGA Championship, the US Senior Open and The Senior Open) represents a 16% increase in prize funds year-on-year.
Complementing the drama of the professional events will be the unique Legends Experience where passionate amateurs can tee off alongside their heroes in the Tour’s one-of-a-kind pro-am experience. Amateurs live the life of a professional golfer, playing in tournament conditions in-front of the crowds and TV cameras with access to the players’ lounge and locker room, private coaching clinics with our Legends and practice on the players’ range. Amateurs will also enjoy world-class hospitality and attend VIP functions, such as evenings hosted by Ryder Cup Legends. The Legends Experience has now been rolled out to 11 tournaments across the globe.
The Luxe Scot Celebrity Pro-Am will also return to the OFX Irish Legends and the Staysure PGA Seniors Championship and features stars from the world of sport and entertainment competing to raise money and awareness for their chosen charities.
