International Series to return to India in October 2026
The International Series will return to India in 2026, with the second edition of the event scheduled for October 8–11 at Prestige Golfshire Club in Bengaluru.
The announcement comes as the Series unveiled the first nine events of its 2026 calendar, continuing its role as one of the Asian Tour’s key pathways into elite men’s golf, including direct qualification opportunities into the LIV Golf League.
The Series made its India debut in 2025, drawing significant attention when Bryson DeChambeau headlined a strong LIV-backed field that also included Joaquín Niemann, Paul Casey, Carlos Ortiz, Abraham Ancer, Harold Varner III and India’s Anirban Lahiri.
Rahul Singh, Head of The International Series, said the return reflects India’s growing place on the global golf stage.
“The International Series 2025 was a resounding success and served truly as an inflection point for international golf in India,” Singh said. “This year’s edition will once again offer a unique opportunity for golf fans across the subcontinent to witness world-class golf.”
The 2026 season will begin with International Series Japan at Caledonian Golf Club from April 2–5, followed by the Singapore Open at Sentosa Golf Club from April 23–26.
Vietnam will host the Series from May 14–17, before International Series Morocco is staged at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam from June 11–14.
After the summer break, the circuit returns to India in October, before heading to China from November 5–8 for the inaugural International Series China.
The season finale stretch will conclude in Saudi Arabia with the PIF Saudi International powered by SoftBank Investment Advisers, to be played from November 18–21 at Riyadh Golf Club.
The Series will also feature the Philippine Open and Link Hong Kong Open in 2026, with dates yet to be confirmed.
LIV Golf’s Ross Hallett said the International Series remains an important part of the LIV ecosystem, offering a global pathway into the league, while Asian Tour CEO Cho Minn Thant highlighted the expansion into key markets such as China and Vietnam.
