College seniors now have a little more to play for this fall.
The European Tour announced Thursday that the leading point-getter in the PGA Tour University standings at the end of the fall will receive a sponsor exemption into the 2022 Slync.io Dubai Desert Classic.
The exemption into the Rolex Series event, scheduled for Jan. 27-30 at Emirates Golf Club, is the latest addition to the strategic alliance between the PGA and European tours.
“This sponsor exemption is a great opportunity to introduce PGA Tour University to a global audience as we continue to find ways to elevate the path to the PGA Tour for elite college players,” said Brendan von Doehren, executive director of PGA Tour University.
