The renewed agreement follows Nexo\u2019s 2025 entry as the Tour\u2019s Official Digital Wealth Platform through 2027 and its rapid progression to title rights at the Championship, underscoring the brand\u2019s focus on long-term, recurring visibility with a tightly defined, affluent audience.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nexo extends title partnership as Race to Dubai landmark<\/h2>\n<p>From its debut, the Nexo Championship has been used as a testbed for new incentives and storytelling around performance. The inaugural 2025 edition introduced the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.europeantour.com\/dpworld-tour\/news\/articles\/detail\/course-record-presented-by-nexo-all-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Course Record<\/a> presented by Nexo, a rolling, season-long prize that starts at $10,000 per tournament and grows with each event until a course record is broken, at which point the fund resets for the next stop. Nexo described the event as \u201csomething we are genuinely proud of \u2013 a tournament that launched the first-ever course record prize on the DP World Tour, and a Scottish champion on home soil in its inaugural year,\u201d adding that the partnership \u201cearns its place in our portfolio through measurable long-term view\u201d and delivers \u201cconcentrated, recurring exposure to exactly the audience Nexo is built for \u2013 and that is a combination worth renewing.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Trump International\u2019s growing tournament profile<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The 2026 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/nexo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Nexo<\/a> Championship will again showcase Trump International Golf Links, with the Old Course returning as host after establishing itself as a striking backdrop in the previous edition. Ben Cowen, Chief Tournament and Operations Officer at the DP World Tour, said: \u201cWe are pleased to have reached this new agreement with both Nexo and Trump International Golf Links for the Nexo Championship to again be part of our global schedule, and we thank them for their continued commitment.\u201d He praised the Trump International Old Course as \u201cone of the leading new links courses in the United Kingdom,\u201d noting that the venue will anchor a packed August in Aberdeen alongside the Staysure PGA Seniors Championship on the Staysure Legends Tour.<\/p>\n<p>Eric F. Trump, speaking for the host venue, framed the renewed deal as validation of the property\u2019s ambitions. \u201cWe are greatly honoured to host the DP World Tour\u2019s Nexo Championship at Trump International, Scotland \u2013 home of the greatest 36 holes in world golf,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is the second consecutive year we have hosted this prestigious event, and I am immensely proud of the two championships links courses that we have built along the spectacular North Sea shoreline. It is testament to their quality and stature that both the Old Course and New Course will host world-class tournaments this August.\u201d Donald Trump Jr. added that \u201c2026 is set to be another incredible year for championship golf at Trump International, Scotland,\u201d and thanked Nexo and partners \u201ccommitted to delivering this great event.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a tournament, the Nexo Championship first appeared on the Race to Dubai schedule in 2020 as the Scottish Championship, then evolved into a named Nexo property as the DP World Tour and Nexo aligned around more purposeful, long-term title partnerships at historically resonant venues. In 2025, Scotland\u2019s Grant Forrest claimed his second DP World Tour title at the Nexo Championship, finishing eight under par and four strokes clear of England\u2019s Joe Dean, and pocketed a $10,000 Course Record bonus for a second-round 66. The 2026 renewal will add a celebrity pro-am on Wednesday, August 19, broadening the tournament beyond the professional field and giving Nexo another touchpoint with fans and invited guests.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nexo\u2019s expanding global sports strategy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Nexo Championship is one pillar in a broader, multi-sport strategy that Nexo is building across continents to reach \u201cfinancially active, globally mobile\u201d audiences.
