The Nexo Championship has proved to be one of the toughest tests on the DP World Tour so far in 2025, with relatively high scoring a common feature as the wind has blown with real gusto at Trump International Golf Links on Scotland’s north-east coast.
Whoever stands tallest after today’s final round will certainly deserve the top check from an overall prize purse of $2.75 million, with the winner set to earn more than $450,000 for his achievement.
As with events such as the BMW International Open, the KLM Open and the Soudal Open, anyone who makes the cut will likely bank in excess of $5,000.

Meanwhile, those who finish in the top-10 is in line to scoop over $55,000 and anyone who finishes in the top-five through four rounds will take home over six figures.
But, not only will the victor claim the biggest financial rewards, this week’s champion will also catapult himself upwards in both the Closing Swing and Race To Dubai rankings.

As well as being a much-anticipated returning event to the schedule, the Nexo Championship is also the penultimate event in the DP World Tour’s Closing Swing. The players involved are jostling for position as they try and clinch the $200,000 bonus check for topping the series standings.

WHERE IS THE NEXO CHAMPIONSHIP BEING PLAYED?

The Nexo Championship is being played on the Old Course at Trump International Golf Links in Scotland. While US President Donald Trump recently opened another 18-hole championship course on the same site, that is the new course whereas the layout being used for the DP World Tour event has been in action since 2012.
Titled ‘the greatest 36 holes in golf’ by the owners, Trump International Golf Links is located on the country’s north-east coast, further up from the golden stretch of courses which includes St Andrews, Muirfield and Carnoustie.
