The Asian Tour’s International Series is almost at an end for 2025, but before it shuts up shop, there is one more round of golf to play at Riyadh Golf Club which could decide so much.
Whoever the top-two eligible golfers are in the final International Series Rankings will earn promotion to the PIF-backed circuit for next year and play for $20 million prize purses each week.

Before a ball was struck in Saudi Arabia, Scott Vincent and Yosuke Asaji were in prime position to take advantage of the opportunity, but with so many points available at the PIF Saudi International, both could lose their chance come Saturday night.
For much of this campaign, players involved in International Series tournaments have been battling it out for $2 million prize purses. However, the Grand Finale of the elevated event sequence is putting up a $5 million payout, shared out between all those who make the cut.

There is $1 million for the PIF Saudi International champion as well as 325 International Series points, which would make a significant difference to a player’s chances of obtaining a LIV Golf card or not.
The runner-up this week will scoop over $500,000, should they finish alone, while ending anywhere inside the top-nine places should see pros bank in excess of six figures.
Such is the significance of the payout compared to other Asian Tour events, simply making the cut on Thursday earned every remaining pro well over $10,000.
Below is the complete prize money payout for the PIF Saudi International, with the maximum amount listed for each position before ties are taken into account based on 65 players finishing all four rounds.
