The Betway Big Easy Tour, the Sunshine Tour’s official development circuit, has unveiled an expanded schedule for its 2025-26 season, featuring 10 regular events, two season-ending tournaments and five new special events in partnership with the Bushveld Tour.
The season tees off at Dainfern Golf Estate from 6-8 May, setting the tone for a busy and competitive campaign.
In addition to the traditional tournaments, the schedule introduces the Betway Big Easy Tour Blue Label Invitationals – a five-event series co-sanctioned with the Bushveld Tour, aimed at offering more playing opportunities and improving the competitive depth of the circuit.
“The Betway Big Easy Tour has grown so much over the past three seasons, and we are very excited to get the new season going,” said general manager Ludwick Manyama. “Our relationship with the Bushveld Tour has led to these additional events, which will benefit our members greatly.”
The new #BetwayBigEasyTour season is upon us.

The host venue for the eighth Big Easy event remains unconfirmed, while the final Blue Label Invitational is set for Silver Lakes Golf Club. The ninth event will be held at Krugersdorp Golf Club from 11-13 November.
Details for the Play-Off and The Final – the season-ending tournaments – will be released later. The Tour continues to enjoy support from Ernie Els and counts international star Christiaan Bezuidenhout among its past Order of Merit winners.
With more events and increased collaboration, the 2025-26 season looks set to offer emerging talent a greater platform to progress toward the elite level of South African and global golf.
