This is a list of players who graduated from the Challenge Tour in 2024. [1]
Both Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen and John Parry earned immediate promotion to the European Tour during the 2024 season by winning three times on the Challenge Tour. Neergaard-Petersen finished 105th on the Race to Dubai, obtaining a higher exemption category for the 2025 European Tour season than he had from his Challenge Tour ranking; Robin Williams, who finished 14th in the Challenge Tour rankings, similarly obtained a higher exemption category through his European Tour performance as a non-member. Because of this, Neergaard-Petersen and Williams did not count against the 20 Challenge Tour graduates, and the players who finished 21st and 22nd in the rankings were given European Tour cards. [2]
Andreas Halvorsen, who finished 27th in points with a total of 645 despite playing in only 13 of the 29 events, was given a medical extension of six Challenge Tour starts in 2025 to earn 40 points and a promotion to the European Tour for the remainder of its 2025 season. He reached the goal in his third start, on 16 March 2025. [3]
