Daisy Ho, Managing Director of SJM, commented, “The Macao Open is not only a stage for the world’s leading golfers to compete, but also an important platform through which SJM advances the integration of sports and tourism. Through this iconic event on the Asian Tour, we hope to showcase Macau’s diverse tourism appeal to the world and further strengthen its position as a vibrant ‘City of Sports.”

Joining Stenson and Im in the 144-player field is defending champion Dominic Foos, whose victory last year made him the first German to win an Asian Tour event since 1996. Also competing is Chinese golf legend Zhang Lianwei, the first Chinese player to win on the European Tour and compete in the Masters. Rising Chinese star Sampson Zheng Yunhe has also confirmed his participation.

This year, the tournament introduces a dedicated invitation for the top-performing Macau golfer from the previous edition, awarded to Ma Kaijun. The SJM Macao Open Qualifier will return in September, continuing efforts to create opportunities for emerging players.
