The tournament, which celebrates its silver jubilee this year, will be held from March 24-27, 2022.

The pro-am event will be held on March 23 and the champion will be crowned on March 27.

Qatar Masters, founded in 1998, is a professional golf tournament, which was earlier a part of European Tour.

“The officials of DP World Tour are expected to arrive two weeks before the event while the next batch of officials will check into Doha one week prior to the event. They will be followed by the DP World Tour media team, players, caddies and other personnel,” added Shoueiry.
