Augusta National Golf Club: Golf superstar Rory McIlroy is set to return to India later this year, with the five-time Major champion confirming his participation in the 2026 India Championship, scheduled to be held at the Delhi Golf Club from October 15 to 18.
The World No. 2 will headline the $4 million event, marking his second consecutive appearance at the tournament following a memorable debut last season that drew significant fan interest. Organisers have already opened ticket registrations, anticipating another strong turnout for one of the country’s premier golf events.
McIlroy’s return comes on the back of a remarkable run in recent years. The Northern Irishman cemented his legacy by completing the career Grand Slam at Augusta National Golf Club, adding the Masters title to his previous Major victories at the U.S. Open (2011), PGA Championship (2012, 2014), and The Open Championship (2014). His stellar 2025 season also included multiple wins on the PGA Tour, a second Irish Open title, and a key role in Europe’s Ryder Cup triumph in New York. He capped the year by securing his seventh Race to Dubai title, extending his dominance on the global stage.
