Abraham Ancer & John Catlin confirms participation at International Series India golf event

The International Series India golf tournament will be held at the DLF Golf & Country Club in Gurugram from January 30 to February 2.

The 2024 LIV Golf Hong Kong winner, Abraham Ancer, and the reigning Asian Tour Order of Merit champion, John Catlin, are among the latest stars to confirm their participation at the International Series India presented by DLF, the US$2 million tournament set to take place at DLF Golf and Country Club later this month.

Ancer and Catlin will join defending U.S. Open champion and captain of LIV Golf’s Crushers GC, Bryson DeChambeau, plus local hero Anirban Lahiri, and The International Series Rankings winner Joaquin Niemann for the highly anticipated tournament taking place from January 30 to February 02 in Gurugram.

Mexican Ancer, a key member of Sergio Garcia’s Fireballs GC in 2024, delivered an impressive season in the LIV Golf League – finishing 12th in the individual standings thanks to his victory in Hong Kong and three additional top-10 finishes.

Catlin enjoyed an outstanding 2024 campaign, claiming back-to-back Asian Tour victories at the International Series Macau presented by Wynn in March, where he carded a historic 59, and edged out Fireballs GC’s David Puig in a thrilling playoff, and at the Saudi Open presented by PIF in April.

In addition to his wins, the American delivered strong performances with two play-off defeats on The International Series. He narrowly missed out at International Series Morocco to Ben Campbell, who just joined LIV Golf with RangeGoats GC, and at the Black Mountain Championship in Thailand to compatriot M.J. Maguire.

He also enjoyed a successful season as an alternate on the LIV Golf League, with a T7, his season-high in six appearances for three different teams, Crushers GC, Smash GC, and Legion XIII.

International Series India presented by DLF marks the debut of the LIV Golf-backed series on the subcontinent. It is the first of 10 elevated events on this season’s Asian Tour, featuring stops in destinations such as Macau, Morocco, Indonesia, the Philippines, Hong Kong, and Saudi Arabia, with additional locations to be announced soon.

The series provides a global pathway for players to qualify for the LIV Golf League, with the season-ending rankings champion securing a guaranteed spot on the roster for the following season. Additionally, the International Series Rankings offer players a second opportunity to earn their place in the LIV Golf League through the innovative LIV Golf Promotions event.
