The 9th Hole of the illustrious West Course at Wentworth Club plays host to The Buffalo Trace Distillery Impossible Barrel Challenge. Bob MacIntyre, Ryan Fox and an array of DP World Tour stars were invited to take on the impossible; to hit one perfect shot and land their ball into a Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel located 240 yards away in the fairway. Will anyone hit one perfect shot to conquer The Buffalo Trace Impossible Barrel Challenge?

Mini Golf as you have never seen it before. Major winner Justin Rose takes on BMW PGA Champion Billy Horschel in the inaugural DP World Mini Golf Invitational, the ultimate test of precision and strategy. Ahead of the BMW PGA Championship Rose and Horschel went head-to-head at Bear Mountain Adventure Golf in London over the tricky 8-hole Jungle Course, in the biggest test of each player’s illustrious career. Widely acknowledged as the ‘Fifth Major’, both players were desperate to get their hands on the iconic trophy and the competitive spirit from players and caddies frequently spilled over into passionate disagreements on the course. DP World, a global leader in smart logistics and title partner of the DP World Tour, are known for their accurate and precise supply chain solutions, navigating obstacles to deliver shipments with expertise. Multiple DP World Tour winners Rose and Horschel will have to demonstrate those qualities to successfully find a way past the difficult mini golf course to come out the first ever DP World Mini Golf Invitational champion. Can Billy Horschel make it two historic, global victories in one week to add to his BMW PGA Championship victory at Wentworth? Watch here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eNHKhphJ

As part of our Green Drive programme, we're launching a new tool in November that will allow our players to easily calculate and offset their emissions when travelling to and from tournaments – a first for pro golf. With player travel accounting for 35% of a tournaments total carbon footprint, this is an important step as we continue our march to be net zero by 2040. This builds on the fan emissions tracker we launched in May for our ticket holders. We've set a bold target of 90% of our players regularly offsetting their travelling by 2027, supporting Gold Standard accredited climate mitigation projects. As Rory McIlroy says (who has been offsetting his travel for four seasons already): “As golfers we have the opportunity to travel all over the world doing the job we love, but I do have a conscience about the impact that can have on the environment, and that’s why I began taking steps a few years ago to offset my carbon footprint and make my travel neutral. I think we can all play our part in some way or another, and it’s great to see the DP World Tour launching this new tool to help and encourage members to track and offset their travel.” Full details here 👉 https://lnkd.in/e7heY9Wu Maria Grandinetti Milton, AIEMA Andrew Lynch GEO Foundation for Sustainable Golf #sustainability #golf #sport

Play Your Part - Sustainability at the BMW PGA Championship With the players playing their part on the course at the BMW PGA Championship, we took a look at how everyone at the event is playing their part in our mission for Net Zero. Initiatives during the week included electric mowers from the Wentworth Club Ltd greenkeeping team, new vegetarian and vegan options from chef James Tanner, leftover food donated to local foodbanks with City Harvest London, an all-electric fleet of BMW Group courtesy cars, the television broadcast running entirely on green hydrogen power, fan park & rides to encourage public transport and much, much more.

We gave Tom Holland and his brothers Harry and Sam another 500 balls to see if they could make a hole-in-one. After taking part in the first ever celebrity edition of the Chase The Ace Hole-In-One Challenge this time last year, the brothers had to come back to have another go. Could Hollywood star Tom, Harry and Sam defy the odds and do what only two DP World Tour professionals, Andy Sullivan and Robert MacIntyre, have done in the history of the challenge and find that one, perfect shot? Ahead of their appearance at the BMW PGA Championship Celebrity Pro-Am, where they played with fan favourite Tommy Fleetwood, the three Hollands gave up another day to hit 500 balls on the 128-yard par three 2nd hole of the Edinburgh Course at Wentworth Golf Club in London. Here’s what happened…

Golf should be unforgettable. The Alzheimer's Society and DP World Tour are working together to raise much needed awareness and help fans learn the signs and symptoms of dementia. Great golf should be unforgettable, but sadly for millions of people living with dementia worldwide, this isn’t the case. Around 55 million people globally have dementia with Alzheimer’s disease being the most common form. The third round of this year’s BMW PGA Championship coincides with World Alzheimer’s Day and the DP World Tour is proud to support the Alzheimer’s Society in raising much needed awareness of the signs and symptoms of dementia. This is the forgotten crisis.

In the build-up to this year’s BMW PGA Championship, Matt Wallace and Kevin Pietersen were tasked with a hugely important role ahead of the tournament; to deliver the iconic BMW Group vehicle to be installed into the 18th Grandstand. Ahead of the 20th edition of the BMW PGA Championship under BMW’s sponsorship, the duo were tasked with delivering the vehicle in time for the grandstand installation to take place ahead of the tournament. First, they were challenged with solving clues, giving away an array of tickets and completing a very special game of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? on the in-vehicle AirConsole gaming platform before their arrival at Wentworth Club for the grandstand installation.
