It follows confirmation that the Emirates airline will remain a sponsor of the season-ending event until 2027.

The announcements have been made shortly after the 2022 edition of the DP World Tour Championship, which ran from November 16 to 20.

Guy Kinnings, the DP World Tour’s deputy chief executive and chief commercial officer, said: “This new long-term deal allows us to plan ahead and make sure that future editions of the DP World Tour Championship continue to set new standards in fan engagement. The tour’s links to the Emirate of Dubai date back to 1989, and this announcement further solidifies a relationship that continues to place Dubai as a central destination in the sporting calendar each year.”

Jumeirah is managed by wasl Asset Management Group, with its two courses operated by the Dubai Golf body.
