Alfred Dunhill Championship, Professional golf tournament at Leopard Creek Country Club, Malalane, South Africa.
The Alfred Dunhill Championship is a professional golf tournament held on a championship course with 72 holes located next to Kruger National Park. The course stretches across substantial grounds and presents challenging conditions for players competing at the highest levels.
The tournament was established in 2000 when it replaced an earlier South African championship on the professional tour calendar. This change brought international sponsorship and broader recognition to the event.
The tournament brings together players from European and African professional circuits, creating a rare meeting point for international golfers. It has become an important fixture that connects different golfing traditions and standards.
The tournament takes place each December with four rounds of professional competition from international touring players. The course location in a remote wildlife area means visitors should plan accordingly for travel and access.
The course is designed so players can observe wildlife from Kruger National Park while competing. This blending of wilderness into the competition experience sets it apart from other professional venues.
