The DP World Tour has a special week in Munich where 66-year-old Bernhard Langer plays his final tournament on Tour at the BMW International Open – whilst still being active and competitive on the Champions Tour.
A warm send-off to this German golf legend is guaranteed.

LIV Golf’s Patrick Reed (US), Martin Kaymer (Ger) and Thomas Pieters (Bel) have received invites along with Nico Colsaerts (Bel), Thomas Bjorn (Den), Luke Donald (Eng) and Miguel Angel Jimenez (Spain),
The Asian Tour sees a strong field of 156 players assembled for the International Series – Morocco at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, over the Red Course.
The UAE has a lot of interest with Rayhan Thomas receiving an invite to compete alongside fellow Indians: Jeev Milkha Singh, Shiv Kapur, and Gaganjeet Bhullar with UAE amateur Ahmad Skaik receiving a Regional Exemption spot.
The leader of the Asian Tour Order of Merit, John Catlin (US) is in the field along with a number of LIV Golf players: Graham McDowell (NI), Branden Grace (RSA), Peter Uihlein (US) and Pat Perez (US).
