The world’s top two players, Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods, have been confirmed for the eighth annual Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship - running January 17-20 at Abu Dhabi Golf Club.

 They’ll head the battle for the prestigious falcon trophy and a share of the event’s US $2.7m prize purse.

Off-course, the Championship Village will again have fantastic activities, attractions, prizes, games, competitions and live performances to entertain visitors. The family-friendly picnic day is back on Friday 18 January, while the popular ‘Dress in Red Day’ returns on Saturday 19 January. Any visitor with red in their outfit enters free on the Championship’s penultimate day. 

With tickets priced at AED50 (US$13.3) for a daily pass and AED150 (US$ 40) for a four-day pass, Emirates Golf Federation members and children under-18 – when accompanied by an adult – enter free. HSBC customers can redeem exclusive ticket offers by simply presenting their cards at the entry gate during tournament week. Premier card holders can redeem family ticket access, while regular card holders can claim two daily tickets.
