After a two-week break for the Olympics, the DP World Tour season resumes with its one visit to Czechia for the D+D Real Czech Masters.
Last year, it became a battle of two Englishmen for the title, with Todd Clements ultimately collecting his first win on the circuit after what he described as the round of his life to beat Matt Wallace by one shot. That handed him the first prize of $340,000 from the $2m overall purse, but there’s even more to play for this year.
The 10th anniversary of the tournament, which comes from a new venue, PGA National OAKS Prague, sees the payout increase to $2.5m, meaning the winner will bank $425,000.
The tournament also marks the penultimate of the Closing Swing stage of the season. The winner after next week’s Danish Golf Championship will earn $200,000 along with a place in the field in the next Rolex Series event, the BMW PGA Championship, as well as each of the Back 9 events.
Thanks to his win in the first of the Closing Swing tournaments, the Genesis Scottish Open, Robert MacIntyre leads the way. However, he’s playing in the first of the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Playoffs, the FedEx St. Jude Championship, this week. The highest-placed player in the D+D Real Czech Masters field is Romain Langasque, in fourth.
There are also 3,000 Race To Dubai points available as well as world ranking points.
Below is the prize money payout for the D+D Real Czech Masters.
