Phnom Penh, Cambodia - The International Series has added another exciting new destination to its groundbreaking schedule for the 2025 season with International Series Cambodia presented by Royal Group unveiled as the latest addition to a sweeping calendar of new territories and established golf markets.
The International Series will make its debut in one of golf’s emerging markets at the Chhun On Golf Resort in Phnom Penh from Oct. 9-12. The sixth of 10 LIV Golf-backed events across the season will bring a mix of LIV Golf stars and top performers on the Asian Tour.
Chairman Kith Meng of the Royal Group said: “Bringing The International Series to Cambodia, and the Chhun On Golf Resort, is a major milestone for us in the development of the golf industry and tourism in our country, which under the 7th Mandate of the Royal Government, Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei Hun Manet, Prime Minister of Cambodia is supporting and welcoming of such sporting tourism events.
"By hosting the International Series in Cambodia, we are not only promoting our beautiful country on a global stage but also inspiring our youth and local communities to engage with sports. This event will serve as a catalyst for tourism and hospitality industries while showcasing the rich culture and hospitality that Cambodia has to offer.
“We are committed to making this an unforgettable experience for players and spectators alike, and we look forward to welcoming everyone to Chhun On Golf Resort this October.
“With a world-class field of LIV Golf and Asian Tour players, Cambodia will be firmly on the map and fans all over the world will be able to see the incredible calibre of courses and facilities we have in Cambodia.”
Rahul Singh, Head of The International Series said: “Adding Cambodia to the schedule is an important step as we continue to grow our brand among new audiences, offer playing opportunities to the best in the region, and strengthen the growing global golf ecosystem by enabling the development of the game at grass roots within this key market.”
The new event builds on already strong connections with the country fostered by the Asian Tour. Angkor Golf Resort in Siem Reap is an Asian Tour Destinations venue that hosted the Handa Faldo Cambodian Classic in 2012, and the ADT Players Championship presented by The R&A last year, a landmark event aimed at growing the sport in the country.
Cho Minn Thant, Commissioner & CEO of the Asian Tour added: “This is another important date in the calendar for the Asian Tour. Cambodia is a country we have forged strong links with on a number of levels over the years.”
For the past four seasons, the events on The International Series have offered elevated prize money and a proven pathway to the LIV Golf League.
