The Aramco Team Series event will take place at Shenzhen’s Mission Hills Resort.
This three-day event features both team and individual competitions.
Teams of four, including one amateur and three professionals, compete over the first two days.
Captains are chosen based on their world ranking as of September 23. They pick a professional teammate, another is selected randomly, and an amateur completes the team. The best two scores from each team count toward the overall score.
Over three days, 84 professional players also compete in an individual strokeplay event. After the second round, only the top-60 professionals continue to the final day. Fans might find this format exciting as it blends team spirit with individual skill.
Prize money for the event totals $1 million, split equally between team and individual competitions. The winner of the individual contest gets $75,000 while the winning team takes home $105,000.
