The Qatar Masters is turning 28 this year! What started back in 1998 as a little promotional tournament has evolved into an integral event that now draws some of the top-ranked players from around the world. It’s also the final stop on the DP World Tour’s Desert Swing, wrapping up an exciting run of five events across the UAE and Bahrain.
This year’s field for the 2025 Commercial Bank Qatar Masters is packed with some serious talent, with Laurie Canter, Jorge Campillo, and Matthew Jordan leading the charge, alongside more of the world’s best players. It’s the ninth event of the 2025 European Tour, so you know the stakes are high! The action will take place at the stunning Doha Golf Club in Qatar.
With a purse of $2.5 million up for grabs, the winner of this year’s Qatar Masters will take home $425,000, which represents 17 percent of the total sum, according to the European Tour’s prize money distribution. Additionally, the runner-up and the second runner-up will be taking home $275,000 and $156,500, respectively.

Stars to look out from the Middle East at the 2025 Commercial Bank Qatar Masters
The 2025 Commercial Bank Qatar Masters is shaping up to be an exciting showdown, and the Middle East is bringing some serious talent to the course. Leading the charge is the UAE’s Adrian Otaegui, ready to take on Doha’s challenge. But don’t count out fellow Emirati Joshua Grenville-Wood—after finishing sixth last year, he’ll be aiming to take things up a notch and secure an even better result. Keep an eye on these rising stars!
And that’s just the beginning. Shergo Al-Kurdi from Saudi Arabia, and Moroccan star Adam Bresnu, who was titled the first Arab-born to be a part of a Rolex Series event, will also brace the field with their presence, putting up a rather exciting round. Amateurs Saleh Al-Kaabi and Daniil Sokolov will proudly represent the hosts at this year’s event, while 18-year-old Scottish talent Dominic McGlinchey, who grew up playing in Qatar, is also set to compete. Guess what? his dad was the former general manager of the Doha Golf Club, so you can bet this tournament holds a special place for him!
