In advance of its full schedule announcement for 2024, the Asian Development Tour (ADT) is delighted to confirm the return of the ADT–All Thailand Partnership Trophy and the Singha Laguna Phuket Open next season.

This comes in tandem with the All Thailand Golf Tour (ATGT) releasing its full schedule today – that confirmed both tournaments will be jointly-sanctioned by the two prospering circuits.

The ADT–All Thailand Partnership Trophy, won by Thailand’s Kosuke Hamamoto in July, will be staged from May 2-5, and offer total prizemoney of THB3million (approximately US$86,690). The venue will be confirmed later.

The following week, from May 9-12, the Singha Laguna Phuket Open will be hosted by Laguna Golf Phuket (pictured) – an Asian Tour Destinations member – where the purse will be THB4million (approximately US$115,590). Indonesia’s rising star Naraajie Ramadhanputra raised the trophy in May.

Ken Kudo, Associate Director, Partnerships, Asian Tour said: “As we finalise details for the 2024 season, we are thrilled to be able confirm that the ADT–All Thailand Partnership Trophy and the Singha Laguna Phuket Open will be back.

“Both events were extremely successful and popular this year and will once again be important stops for our membership in the new season.

More news on our calendar will be revealed in due course.”

Both tournaments will feature a Monday qualifier, which are open to ADT members, and will see a maximum of 12 players qualify. A total of 60 places are available for ADT players in each tournament, which will boast starting fields of 144 players. They will be broadcast live on local television.

The 2023 ADT season came to a memorable conclusion at the beginning of this month when Thailand’s Denwit Booribonsub won the Aramco Invitational.

That allowed him to top the ADT Order of Merit and secure his Asian Tour card for 2024, something that the top-10 on Merit list are all rewarded with.

Remarkably, just two weeks later Denwit went on the claim the Saudi Open presented by Public Investment Fund – the final event of the Asian Tour’s season. It is the first time that a player achieved that double and was another example of the myriad of opportunities offered by the ADT – the Asian Tour’s burgeoning feeder circuit. This year it featured 12 events offering lucrative overall prizemoney of US$1.38million.
