This week sees the start of a new chapter in the DP World Tour’s long association with India with the inaugural DP World India Championship. Taking place at the historic Delhi Golf Club and co-sanctioned with the Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI), the DP World India Championship underscores India’s growing influence as a destination for elite golf. Career Grand Slam winner McIlroy makes his first appearance in India this week with a return to competitive action after helping Europe win the Ryder Cup at Bethpage. With two wins already on the Race to Dubai this season at the Masters Tournament and Amgen Irish Open, the World Number Two will be looking to strengthen his grip on the Race to Dubai title ahead of the DP World Tour Play-Offs. Joining him are Tommy Fleetwood, Viktor Hovland and Shane Lowry and Luke Donald. From the U.S. Ryder Cup side, American Major winner Brian Harman and two-time PGA TOUR winner Ben Griffin are in the field hoping to delight the fans in Delhi. The DP World India Championship is the eighth of nine events in the Back 9 on the 2025 Race to Dubai, building towards the season-ending DP World Tour Play-Offs.

    Been to Indian a few times with my job, i bet he will not see the poverty, people there live in slums and even tepees and oil drums but the World says nothing.

    Great to see Rory travel all the way to India without accepting any appearance fee.

    Rory, play more international tournaments. DP Tour is more exciting + competitive. Here in usa, savage sheep can be saints in wolf fur. Keep being a man of ALL PEOPLE ✌🏾⛳️

    Ambassador for world golf. Rory is a great politician in directing the correct narrative for the best in the sport. Outstanding interview. Great Rory.

    I love Rory's comments about "golf being golf." It's more of a participation sport and doesn't need to grow like sports that are watched. We should preserve centuries of tradition, values, and etiquette.

    Rory is loved everywhere except by the yanks. I think next year he’ll play less in the states

    I very much doubt Rory will see this, but if someone can get him to, go and see Hampi whilst you are there!

    Rory just loves India, the couple of million appearance money has absolutely nothing to do with it.

    The narrative should in fact be how horrible the New York fans were, and don't ever take the Ryder Cup there again, and understand that if you go to New York, those are the people who live there, they are not real Americans, they are pathetic losers, and they need to change or get out of our country. 🙏🏻

    I hope the fans meet him with a cup of tea and pastries.

    Quite simply RESPECT. In many ways you have to be a golfer to fully understand why this gentleman is a true ambassador of our sport. Many would learn a lot from listening to what he has to say and the way he conducts himself.
