DP World Tour’s 2024 Magical Kenya Open: Full field and player rankings explored
After a successful Middle-East run, the DP World Tour now travels to the African continent for the 2024 Magical Kenya Open. The European tour event is set to tee off at the Muthaiga Golf Club in Nairobi, Kenya, on Thursday, February 22. The four-day event will feature a 144-player field, populated by many circuit regulars.
The Kenya Open will have some big names from the DP World Tour on its roster. The event will be headlined by the likes of World No. 87 Thriston Lawrence, No.77 Rikuya Hoshino and No. 130 Alex Fitzpatrick. Dylan Frittelli, Adrian Otaegui, Edoardo Molinari and Eddie Pepperell, among others, will also tee off at the event.
Despite the stacked field, the Kenya Open field will not have any player from the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking.
The golfers will compete at the DP World Tour event for the $2,500,000 prize purse. The event winner will claim the $425,000 paycheck, while the runner-up bags $275,000. Meanwhile, the golfer finishing third on the final leaderboard will get a $157,500 payout.
