Entries open for MENA Golf Tour Qualifying Schools

Entries are now open for the three 2026/27 MENA Golf Tour Qualifying Schools, with the Tour also confirming that the new season will begin in Egypt at the end of November.

For the first time, three Qualifying Schools will be staged, two in the UK and one in the United States, in response to increased demand from players looking to earn MENA Golf Tour status.

• October 1-2: Qualifying School, UK – Dalmahoy, Edinburgh
• October 13-15: Qualifying School, USA – Slammer & Squire, Florida
• October 20-21: Qualifying School, UK – RAC, Epsom

The leading 10 players at each Qualifying School will earn exempt status for the 2026/27 season, and any player wishing to guarantee their place in every tournament next season should enter one of the three Qualifying Schools.

Players finishing 11th to 20th at each school will also earn playing opportunities through the Tour's exemption categories.

The season will get under way with three tournaments in Egypt before Christmas, beginning on November 28, with further events starting December 3 and then December 8.

The remainder of the 2026/27 schedule will be announced in the coming weeks, with the Tour confirming there will be a minimum of 12 tournaments and at least $1.2 million in prize money across the season.

Costs for players will remain unchanged for 2026/27.

The entry fee for each regular MENA Golf Tour tournament stays at $550, annual membership remains $995, and every Tour event will carry a minimum $100,000 prize fund, with some tournaments set to offer larger purses.

The Tour will continue with its clear commitment to pay players promptly following the completion of tournaments.

The MENA Golf Tour has established itself as a proven pathway to the highest levels of the game, with alumni including Robert MacIntyre, Thriston Lawrence and Major champion Matthew Fitzpatrick all competing on the Tour early in their careers.
