The Hero Challenge is back, as DP World Tour stars try to set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the ‘Longest Golf Putt (Non-Tournament)’. On the 7th hole of Yas Links in Abu Dhabi, we tasked every player in the field with the near impossible task of holing a putt from a remarkable distance of 139 yards (127.1 metres) away. Filmed ahead of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, over 65 players attempted the putt including the likes of Tommy Fleetwood, Min Woo Lee, Matt Wallace, Robert MacIntyre and Justin Rose – could they find the one perfect shot?

DP World Tour stars, Shane Lowry and Tom McKibbin, team-up to take on the Guess the Golfer Challenge, in partnership with Cyber Security Leader, Fortinet. Facing six rounds, and six FIFA-style player cards, Lowry and McKibbin will have to guess their fellow DP World Tour players using only their Driving Distance, Driving Accuracy, Approach Play, Short Game and Putting stats. Leveraging the detailed stats and data provided on the DP World Tour website, each aspect of their game has been analysed and assigned a score out of 100. Will that be sufficient for Lowry and McKibbin to identify they mystery golfer? There is also a bonus clue available to help the pair if they are really struggling… How many golfers can they identify?

We are back to try and break another record, challenging DP World Tour winner Jordan Smith, Mac Boucher and Brisbane Lions’ Josh Dunkley to take on the Guinness World Records title for the ‘The Most Golf Balls Caught in One-Minute’.   At Royal Queensland Golf Club, Brisbane, ahead of the BMW Australian PGA Championship, the rules of the attempt dictated that the ball must travel a minimum of 100m, with Jordan and Mac able to hit as many balls as possible during their one-minute time limit; with AFL star Josh Dunkley tasked with catching their attempts. Only balls which travelled 100m and were successfully caught would count – and the existing record for the attempt is 12. Could the trio team up and take down another GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title? Let’s find out… BMW Group

The 2024 DP World Tour Season as told by the players. What a year it has been on the DP World Tour – unrivalled drama across 44 tournaments in 24 countries, with over 1.3m shots all leading to one champion being crowned at Jumeirah Golf Estates last week.   And as the new season starts in just a few days, who’s ready to do it all again in 2025?

What an end to the 2024 season yesterday at the DP World Tour Championship, with an emotional Rory McIlroy taking the title and winning his sixth Race to Dubai crown – equalling the legendary Seve Ballesteros. There was a record attendance of over 80,000 people at the event, and our TV audience on Sky and BBC was up 24% vs 2023. A memorable conclusion to a new-look season structure that has proven incredibly popular with fans. But don’t worry, you won’t have long to wait for more action - the 2025 Race to Dubai kicks off this Thursday in Australia! #DPWorldTour #golf
