New Delhi: The 2025 edition of the prestigious Hero Indian Open is set to be held from March 27-30 at the DLF Golf and Country Club, Gurugram.
The iconic golf tournament has attracted an elite field, with early entries already featuring prominent stars and champions from the 2024 and 2025 schedules. Among the notable names are Jacques Kruyswijk, Johannes Veerman, Julien Guerrier, Angel Hidalgo, Frederic Lacroix, David Ravetto, Ewen Ferguson, and Guido Migliozzi among others.



24-year-old defending champion, Keita Nakajima from Japan will lead the charge at the tournament that catapulted him to global fame. Joining Nakajima and intensifying the competition will be Germany’s Marcel Siem, who clinched the championship in 2023, ending a 10-year title drought.
The $2.25 million Hero Indian Open 2025 is part of the Asian Swing, that features the Singapore Classic, China Open, and Hainan Classic.

Sanjay Bhan, Executive Vice President, Hero MotoCorp, said: “The Hero Indian Open is more than a tournament; it is a testament to Hero MotoCorp’s leadership in promoting Indian golf on the global stage. With the announcement of the Hero Indian Open 2025, we are proud to extend our two-decade-long partnership with India’s national open and continue building on our rich history of showcasing the world’s best golfers on Indian soil. Hero MotoCorp remains dedicated to enhancing its legacy of supporting and advancing sports in India and globally. Our vision is to inspire the next generation and create opportunities for youth across the world.”

Co-sanctioned by the Indian Golf Union (IGU), the Hero Indian Open offers the Indian Tour winner a full card for the following year on the DP World Tour. Last year’s runner-up, Veer Ahlawat, won the Indian Order of Merit and is now competing at the DP World Tour.

Alongside Veer, Shubhankar Sharma, a two-time winner on the DP World Tour, will headline the Indian challenge at the event. Joining the duo will be local boy Manu Gandas, who played in the DP World Tour in 2023.

Another highlight is Indian teen prodigy Kartik Singh, who has been in form and finished in the Top-10 in his last three international amateur events (twice in South Africa and once in Australia).



Brijinder Singh, President, Indian Golf Union, said, “The Hero Indian Open is one of Asia’s most prestigious golf tournaments and has played a crucial role in the development of Indian golf, having been instrumental in showcasing India’s golfing talent at a global level. We are thankful to Hero MotoCorp and DP World Tour for their continuous support to Hero Indian Open as it serves as an inspiration as well as a stepping stone for Indian golfers aiming to make it big on the world stage.”

DLF Golf & Country Club is world-class course that provides our players with a true test every year, so we are grateful to everyone at the venue for their continued support and hospitality. I would also like to thank the Indian Golf Union (IGU), for their hard work in continuing to develop golf in India. This tournament has played such an important role in helping them to achieve that and we look forward to the 2025 edition later this month.”
