World Amateur Team Championships To Be Held In Dubai For The First Time!
Updated on 05 September 2022

The 2023 World Amateur Team Championships is set to be held in Dubai.

Announced by The International Golf Federation (IGF), the championships will be held for the first time in the Middle East.

The 30th women’s championship for the Espirito Santo Trophy will be held from 18 to 21 October 2023 followed by the 33rd men’s championship for the Eisenhower Trophy held 25 to 28 October 2023.

The Greg Norman-designed Fire Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai will be the host venue.

Antony Scanlon, Executive Director of the IGF said, "Both candidates provided exceptionally strong bid proposals, which was duly noted by both the IGF Administrative Committee and the IGF Bid Panel. We greatly appreciate the interest and strong case presented by the Singapore Golf Association. At the same time, the Emirates Golf Federation made a compelling case that resonated with our member organisations and we’re very excited to be holding our first World Amateur Team Championships in the Middle East region. We look forward to working with the Emirates Golf Federation to deliver a memorable event and experience for the athletes in 2023."
