The event represents a significant evolution for the Dominican Republic’s sports tourism sector, fueled by a strategic integration between the PGA TOUR, DP World Tour, and FedExCup. Held at the Corales Golf Course, the competition brings together elite international talent, including defending champion Garrick Higgo and past winners such as Brice Garnett, Joel Dahmen, and Chad Ramey. Notable PGA Tour players including Brandt Snedeker, Nick Dunlap, and Stephan Jaeger are also slated to compete.
Beyond the professional leaderboard, the tournament serves as a developmental stage for local talent, with Doménico Geminiani, Anthony García, and Willy Pumarol qualifying through the Tour Canita circuit. Organizers have expanded the visitor experience to include oceanfront skyboxes and live music performances. Proceeds from the July 16-19 event will support the Grupo Puntacana Foundation, funding local environmental conservation, healthcare, and education initiatives.
