Morocco's Rising Golf Scene: A Global Showcase
The International Series has established itself as a premier pathway in the world of golf, featuring a series of elite tournaments co-sanctioned by LIV Golf and the Asian Tour. This prestigious series not only leads to the coveted Rankings Winner and Runner-Up promotion to the LIV Golf League but also significantly enhances the stature of host nations, particularly Morocco, within the global golf tourism landscape. The fourth edition of the International Series Morocco, presented by Visit Morocco, is set to take place from June 11 to 14 at the renowned Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, marking an important milestone on the global golf stage.
Since its inception in 2022, the International Series Morocco has garnered robust support from the Royal Moroccan Golf Federation, chaired by His Royal Highness Prince Moulay Rachid. This partnership reflects a shared vision dedicated to the growth of the sport and creating valuable opportunities for local players to showcase their talents on an international platform. Collaborating closely with the local government and in conjunction with the Asian Tour, the International Series has developed a structured pathway for golfers in Morocco, encompassing everything from the First Stage Qualifying School to the Asian Development Tour, and culminating in the full Asian Tour events. The International Series Morocco stands out as a centerpiece of this comprehensive development initiative, which not only serves as a competitive platform but also represents a long-term investment in the growth of golf both locally and throughout the MENA region.
Strategic Partnerships for Growth
This year’s collaboration with the Moroccan National Tourism Office under the Visit Morocco banner signifies a pivotal advancement in aligning elite sports with tourism promotion. This strategic partnership positions Morocco as an emerging golf travel hub, not just within the region but on a global scale. The recognition of the Red Course at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam as the Asian Tour Players’ Choice Course of the Year in 2025 further cements its reputation as a premier championship venue, highlighting Morocco’s increasing prominence as a destination for golf enthusiasts worldwide.
Rahul Singh, Head of The International Series, expressed enthusiasm about the event’s growth, stating, “This year marks our fourth tournament in Morocco, and the progress we’ve seen with each staging has been remarkable. Each return has raised the bar for competition while contributing to the continued growth of the game in the country. Our decision last season to commit to two further years reflects Morocco’s strategic importance to the Series, and we are delighted to welcome Visit Morocco as presenting partner in 2026 as we continue to expand the event’s impact.” He further emphasized, “Through this tournament, we are proud to bring some of the biggest names in golf to Morocco, while creating meaningful opportunities for local players to compete, learn, and elevate their game in a truly global environment.”
