Manila, Philippines - The world-class field assembled for International Series Philippines presented by BingoPlus has been further strengthened with the addition of two-time major champion and former World No.1 Dustin Johnson .

The 4Aces GCcaptain will join fellow major winners Bubba Watson, captain of RangeGoats GC, Patrick Reed of 4Aces GC , Charl Schwartzel of Stinger GC and Stinger GC Captain Louis Oosthuizen for the eagerly awaited tournament which takes place at Sta. Elena Golf Club from Oct. 23-26.

Johnson, known for an unbeaten Ryder Cup record in five appearances and a spectacular 5-0 at Whistling Straits in 2021, last appeared on The International Series at the 2024 PIF Saudi International powered by SoftBank Investment Advisers, and his comeback is set to electrify the fairways in the Philippines.

With an illustrious career to his name, Johnson’s achievements include winning the 2016 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club with a 4-under-par score of 276, and a sensational victory at the 2020 Masters Tournament, where he set a tournament record of 20-under-par.

He first rose to World No.1 in February 2017, holding the position for 64 consecutive weeks — the fifth-longest reign in history. He later reclaimed the top spot in 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021, spending more than 130 weeks in total as the world’s best golfer.

Johnson finished runner-up at both The Open Championship (2011) and the U.S. Open (2015), while also collecting six World Golf Championships titles.

Beyond the Majors, Johnson has been a trailblazer in the new era of the game, joining LIV Golf as one of its earliest stars. He secured victory at the LIV Golf Invitational Boston, and captained 4Aces GC to the Team Championship title while also claiming the Individual Season Championship in LIV Golf’s inaugural season.

This season, the American has continued to deliver consistently, with five top-10 finishes, including a strong third-place performance in Indianapolis.

The 41-year-old said: “What I love most about the game is that it takes me to places I might never have gone otherwise, and the Philippines is one of those places. To be able to play in front of new fans, experience a different culture, and share the excitement of world-class golf in a country that’s still discovering the sport — that’s really special for me.”

He added: “The International Series is also a perfect fit for where I’m at in my career. Even though the LIV Golf season is over, I still want to compete, stay sharp, and challenge myself against some of the best players out here. Playing these events keeps me fresh, keeps me hungry, and at the same time helps grow the game in parts of the world that deserve to see it up close.”

With Johnson’s addition to an already world-class field, golf fans in the Philippines and across Asia can expect one of the most competitive and thrilling events of the season.

International Series Philippines presented by BingoPlus is the sixth of the nine elevated events on this season’s Asian Tour schedule, offering players from around the globe a direct pathway into LIV Golf through the season-long Rankings race.

Taking place from 23–26 October at Sta. Elena Golf Club, the tournament promises more than just world-class golf — fans can look forward to headline concerts, premium hospitality, live music, gourmet dining, and immersive fan experiences that will light up the week.
