February is hot in Durban, and this year, it’s about to get much hotter!
The city is set to host the Jonsson Workwear Durban Open at the historic Durban Country Club from 19 to 22 February 2026.
This championship event promises four days of top-tier golf, stunning scenery, and plenty of action both on and off the course.
The tournament forms part of the Sunshine Tour and HotelPlanner Tour, attracting a strong field of South African and international players aiming to make their mark on the Road to Mallorca Rankings (which South African golfer JC Ritchie is currently leading again after winning it in 2025).
Nick Jonsson, CEO of Jonsson Workwear, says bringing this tournament to Durban is a ‘homecoming’ that spotlights world-class golf right on our doorstep.
With the City of Durban as a partner, this tournament is also a global spotlight on our fairways, culture, and coastal charm.

Why Durban Country Club rocks
South Africa's premier classic golf course, established in 1922, is known for its stunning Indian Ocean views, Cape Dutch clubhouse, and challenging semi-links layout carved into coastal dunes.
Durban Country Club recently underwent a major upgrade, earning 8th spot in South Africa’s Top 100 Golf Courses for 2025.
With new bent grass greens, reshaped fairways, and exposed dunes opening up spectacular vistas, this classic course has been elevated to championship standard.
Whether you’re visiting to watch international golf or try a challenging round yourself, Durban Country Club is well worth a visit!
