The AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open has the honor of bringing the curtain down on European Tour action in 2024, also doubling up as the final leg of the DP World Tour’s Opening Swing.
Two champions will be crowned after Sunday's action has concluded, with not only the winner of the Mauritius Open set to earn a significant check but the Opening Swing points leader cashing in as well.
A field of roughly 150 players will compete for the lion's share of a 1.5 million euro prize purse, with the triumphant golfer collecting 255,000 euros, while the man who holds the most Race To Dubai points through the first five tournaments will bank $200,000 - providing they are a current DP World Tour member.
Not only will they receive that extra six-figure sum, but the Opening Swing winner will be invited to January’s Hero Dubai Desert Classic - the next Rolex Series event - as well as the Back Nine phase of the season, which begins with the Betfred British Masters next August.
And as with the previous five Opening Swing tournaments, there are also 3,000 Race to Dubai points on offer. Below is the prize money payout for the AfrBank Mauritius Open at Mont Choisy Golf Club.

Who Are The Star Names In The Mauritius Open?
The clear betting favorite and undoubtedly one of the biggest names in the field is Antoine Rozner. The Frenchman won this tournament at this very venue in 2022 and is one of our betting picks this week to repeat his achievement. Rozner is also preparing for a crack at the PGA Tour in 2025 after becoming one of the 10 DP World Tour players to earn his shot last term.
Former LIV golfer, Kieran Vincent is set to make his very first start on the DP World Tour via one of the National Spots in the field, and he will be joined by former Ryder Cup star, Nicolas Colsaerts.
The Belgian has been paired with Sweden's Marcus Kinhult - who led the Alfred Dunhill Championship after round three last week - plus giant South African, Christo Lamprecht, who rose to prominence at The Masters in 2024 after winning The Amateur Championship in 2023.
Last year's Mauritius Open champion and current LIV golfer, Louis Oosthuizen is not in the field, however.
