Asian Tour postpones $5 million finale over security concerns in Saudi Arabia

Summary

The Asian Tour's $5 million PIF Saudi International, scheduled for November 18-21 at Riyadh Golf Club, has been postponed due to heightened security risks. This decision follows recent attacks in the region, including a strike at Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport that resulted in multiple casualties. The event was set to conclude the 2025/2026 season but has now left players uncertain about their schedules. The tour is in contact with its members to discuss next steps, with no replacement date announced yet. Security and logistics are the priority as the Asian Tour reassesses its situation.
