The 2025 Genesis Championship on the DP World Tour will be held at Woo Jeong Hills Country Club from October 23 to 26 with Byeong Hun An back to defend his title.
In what was the first time the event was played on the DP World Tour after previously being a PGA of Korea event only, Hun An won a play-off with fellow countryman Tom Kim at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club in 2024.
The event will move to the challenging Woo Jeong Hills Country Club for 2025, with the new host venue expected to provide testing precision and consistency throughout the week.
The Genesis Championship field features a competitive mix of established stars like Hideki Matsuyama and Adam Scott as well as some talent bidding for a season-ending victory in South Korea.

Leading Genesis Championship contenders
Trili
Trili has shown solid consistency with several top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour this season, including an eighth-place finish in the PGA Championship.
His average driving distance and accuracy provide a strong advantage on the challenging Woo Jeong Hills course and he is well positioned to compete in the Genesis Championship on home turf in South Korea.
Hideki Matsuyama
Hideki Matsuyama combines accurate ball striking with excellent putting, making him especially dangerous on the Woo Jeong park-style layout.
His 2025 season was consistent, with multiple top finishes and victories in the opening tournament of the year, and he is one of the leading contenders for victory.
Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen
Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen has shown steady improvement and competitive form in 2025 and his playing style should suit Woo Jeong Hills’ strategic demands.
Although he has yet to score a high-profile victory, his recent performances and growing experience position him as an intriguing dark horse in this field.
Adam Scott
Adam Scott remains a formidable presence on tour due to his exceptional court management and ball-striking skills, which are suitable for this week’s test.
His experience and ability to handle course pressure bode well for navigating Woo Jeong’s challenging layout, where precision over power is often rewarded.
Byeong Hun An
Byeong Hun An arrives as defending champions and will bid for another win in front of his home crowd in South Korea.
He is known for his powerful driving and aggressive play. Expect him to combine that with a more calculated approach to tame Woo Jeong’s test.
