HONG KONG – The Link Hong Kong Open will once again play a crucial role in the outcome of the season on the Asian Tour and the International Series. Organisers today confirmed that the renowned event will take place from October 22 to 25, 2026, at the Hong Kong Golf Club (HKGC) in Fanling. It will offer a prize purse of US$2 million and will be part of the International Series for the fourth consecutive time, which is the premier tier of events on the Asian Tour that paves a pathway to the LIV Golf League.
“The historic Hong Kong Open has long attracted some of the sport's biggest stars, and we are very much looking forward to hosting the 65th edition at Fanling,” said Andy Kwok, Captain of the HKGC. “The tournament is always a favourite among players and fans alike, an undisputed highlight on the local sporting calendar, and underscores our club’s commitment to further promoting Hong Kong's status as a major event capital. Our sincere thanks go to Link Asset Management, the title sponsor for the third consecutive year. It truly promises to be another wonderful week of world-class golf and entertainment.”
Today's news follows the thrilling climax of LIV Golf Hong Kong at the HKGC over the weekend. Thousands of fans watched Legion XIII Captain Jon Rahm win the individual title and Dustin Johnson's 4Aces GC team secure the team honors.
