The Alcanada Golf Club will host the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final, supported by the R&A-Road to Mallorca, from October 31st to November 3rd, marking the end of a circuit of 29 tournaments held in 18 countries across three continents. Only the top 20 finishers will earn a DP World Tour card for the 2025 season.

This year's competition offers a substantial prize purse, totaling €500,000. The overall circuit prize pool has risen to €8 million. Throughout the year, the tournament has been held in South Africa, India, the United Arab Emirates, Europe, and China, before concluding, as it has for the past six years, in Mallorca.

It's worth remembering that this project, initiated by the Balearic Golf Federation, began in 2019. In its first phase, the agreement between the federation and the Challenge Tour allowed the competition to be held on the island for four consecutive years. Given the success of those four years, both parties decided to extend the agreement for another four, until 2026.

The Federation's president, Bernardino Jaume, stated on the occasion of the first edition in 2019: “Hosting a competition of this caliber on the world golf calendar puts Mallorca in the international spotlight, with an unimaginable impact.” Following the success of previous years, Jaume affirms that “thanks to the support of the entire Mallorcan golfing community, the support of the Challenge Tour, and the sponsorship of the Balearic Islands Tourism Strategy Agency (AETIB) and the Mallorca Tourism Foundation, we can confidently say that the island is fully established as a year-round golf destination and is also capable of organizing major international events.”. 

In this respect, many of the world's greatest golfers have participated in the Challenge Tour, which, along with many other factors, speaks to the importance of the competition. Furthermore, Jaume asserts, "the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final, supported by the R&A-Road to Mallorca, is not only of great importance from a sporting perspective for the island, but also contributes to extending the tourist season, with the resulting economic benefits.".
