UAE golfers compete for Challenge Tour qualification

The Clutch Pro Tour is back in the UAE with the UAE Championship at Al Ain Equestrian, Shooting & Golf Club. This event offers a chance to qualify for the Abu Dhabi Challenge next month and a £8,000 prize for the winner. The tour has gained recognition since its start in 2019, now serving as a development circuit for golfers. This year, the winner will receive an invitation to the Hotel Planner Tour event in April, enhancing the competition's appeal. The tour will also expand into Morocco this season, thanks to a new partnership with Visit Morocco. The 2025 schedule includes at least 19 events, with the top three players earning Challenge Tour cards for 2026.
