Jason Dufner and Charl Schwartzel are the first two big commitments named for the inaugural Perth International, an event co-sanctioned by the European Tour and PGA Tour of Australasia.
The event, owned and operated by IMG, will boast a $2 million purse. Expect more big names, particularly IMG clients, to commit.
The tournament will be played at Lake Karrinyup C.C. in Perth, Western Australia, from Oct. 18-21.
