The action takes place at the 2018 Ryder Cup venue the week before the biennial contest begins at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club in Italy and a star-studded field is assembling in the French capital. To purchase tickets and premium hospitality packages, click here.

Horschel, who became just the second American to win the BMW PGA Championship in 2021, will make his debut appearance in the Cazoo Open de France and complete a three-week stretch on the DP World Tour, which also comprises the Horizon Irish Open and the BMW PGA Championship, the penultimate Rolex Series event of the year.

“I’m so excited to finish off my stint in Europe at the Cazoo Open de France,” he said. “To play two historic national opens in the shape of Ireland and France either side of the BMW PGA Championship is such a cool run of events.

“I obviously watched the 2018 Ryder Cup and I’ve also heard great things about the golf course from guys who have played it before, so I’m looking forward to the test.”

The seven-time PGA TOUR winner will be joined by rising star Kim, who finished second at The 151st Open earlier this year, the week after adding a tie for sixth to his Genesis Scottish Open record following his third place finish in 2022.

“I’m really pleased with how I’ve played this year, having won on the PGA TOUR and finished inside the top ten at two Majors, and I’m hoping for a strong finish to the year in Europe as well.

The Cazoo Open de France returned to the DP World Tour International Schedule in 2022 after a two-year hiatus, with Italy’s Guido Migliozzi producing one of the shots of the season into the famous 18th green as he won by one stroke from Denmark’s Rasmus Højgaard in a thrilling final day battle.

General admission tickets for all four days and premium hospitality options are now available to purchase and fans are encouraged to buy early to avoid disappointment.
