Munich. After three of Germany’s top players – Stephan Jäger, Martin Kaymer and Matti Schmid – confirmed their spots in the 2025 BMW International Open in December, two international stars have now also been announced, namely the two Masters champions Sergio García (2017) and Patrick Reed (2018). García will tee off at Germany’s only current DP World Tour tournament for the 14th time this year, while Reed is making only his second appearance in Munich.
The two exceptional golfers have also made their mark in the Ryder Cup. With 28.5 points, the 45-year-old Spaniard is the most successful player in the history of the legendary team competition, while the 34-year-old American earned himself the nickname ‘Captain America’ as the emotive leader of Team USA. Reed’s singles match against Rory McIlroy (NIR) at the 2016 Ryder Cup in Hazeltine (USA) is unforgettable and is regarded as the best one ever played in the competition to date.
García last teed off at the BMW International Open in 2022. Despite an extremely successful career with 16 titles on the DP World Tour and eleven wins on the PGA TOUR, he is yet to win in Munich. He has finished second twice (2011 and 2017) and, together with Pablo Larrazábal, became one of the sporting highlights of the tournament’s 36-year history in 2011. Over five extra holes, the two Spaniards went head-to-head in a play-off that was both dramatic and top class, and one that those who had the privilege of witnessing live will no doubt never forget.
“I’m really looking forward to returning to the BMW International Open. This tournament and the golf fans, who have always given me their whole-hearted support there, have always meant a great deal to me,” said García. “I love Munich and am looking forward to competing with a first-class international field, particularly the top German players.”
Reed made his debut at the BMW International Open last year and finished in joint 13thplace. After three rounds the Texan was just two shots behind the leader but was unable to exploit that good starting point on the final Sunday. However, Reed still has very fond memories of the week in Munich.
“I am so excited to announce that I will be back in Munich this summer to tee it up in the 2025 BMW International Open. I played in the historic BMW International for the first time last year, and we had such a great time – the competitive spirit and atmosphere, the Bavarian culture, and crowd makes for such a great event! I look forward to coming back and experiencing that again this year,” said Reed. “I love to play courses with a lot of history, with great winners from both sides of the pond, that truly gives players a proper and fair test. Like all BMW events, this tournament is rich in tradition with outstanding organizations that support this great event and great fans who love great golf! BMW, The DP World Tour, and the tournament staff, make this event so special. We can’t wait to be back!”
