Rory McIlroy will once again tee it up at the BMW PGA Championship from September 12-17, and tickets to see the four-time Major winner at Wentworth Club are on sale at etg.golf/bmwpgatickets

After opening 2023 with his first Rolex Series win in Dubai, the Northern Irish star is aiming to further enhance his impressive BMW PGA Championship record, with a victory in 2014 and four further top tens – including two runner-up finishes – to his name.

McIlroy was in scintillating form when he made his last appearance at Wentworth in September, having sealed his third FedExCup title after a 2021/22 PGA TOUR season which included three victories and seven further top tens.

And following a thrilling final day duel with Ryder Cup teammate and eventual champion Shane Lowry around the famous Surrey venue, he went on to top the Race to Dubai Rankings in Partnership with Rolex for the fourth time, becoming European Number One, World Number One and FedExCup Champion at the same point for the first time in his career.

McIlroy started the new campaign in the same vein, winning his first events of the 2023 season on both sides of the Atlantic, with the prospect of a seventh Ryder Cup appearance approaching in September.

“I always love playing at the BMW PGA Championship, and I’ve had some great results and performances round the West Course in the past,” said the 15-time DP World Tour winner.

“I started 2023 with a win in Dubai, and Wentworth is a place where I would like to add another title.”

McIlroy will join defending champion and fellow Major winner Lowry in the field at the fourth Rolex Series event of the 2023 season, where the world class action inside the ropes will be complemented by live entertainment on the Showstage and an unrivalled atmosphere in the vibrant Spectator Village.

The BMW PGA Championship Festival of Golf takes place less than an hour from central London and an exciting week will begin with G4D Tour @ BMW PGA Championship, which will see some of the best golfers with disabilities battle it out for the penultimate G4D Tour title of the season at the prestigious venue.

That is followed by the star-studded Wednesday Celebrity Pro-Am which brings together global celebrities and some of golf’s most famous players in a fun-filled curtain raiser to the main event, the BMW PGA Championship, which tees off on Thursday September 14.

BMW group owners will once again receive preferred parking benefits, while park & ride and shuttle services from local train stations will be available free of charge to all spectators.
