Capital.com Australia signs multi-year partnership with Golf Australia

Capital.com Australia, the Australian subsidiary of the global trading platform, has announced a multi-year partnership with Golf Australia, becoming the title partner of the Capital.com Australian Open and the first naming rights partner of the Capital.com GA Handicap.

The agreement links Capital.com Australia with both Australia’s leading golf championship and the registered handicap system that underpins participation across the country.

The 2026 Capital.com Australian Open will take place at Kingston Heath Golf Club, one of Australia’s best-known championship golf venues.

As title partner, Capital.com Australia said it will support the growth and fan experience of the tournament through upgraded on-course infrastructure, spectator facilities, and player fields.

As naming rights partner of the GA Handicap, the company will also support the development of the handicap system into a more data-focused insights platform, providing analysis, content, and engagement tools for golfers across Australia.

Golf is a sport built on preparation, patience, and managing risk over time.

Commenting on the partnership announcement, James Sutherland, Chief Executive Officer, Golf Australia, said: 

“Capital.com is investing across the full spectrum of the game — from our premier championship through to the everyday golfer. The scale of this commitment allows us to grow the tournament, attract world-class players, and deliver a significantly enhanced experience for fans, while also strengthening the long-term future of the game.” 

Capital.com Australia said these qualities align with its focus on providing clients with the tools and information needed to make informed decisions, as well as its long-term commitment to the Australian market.

Commenting on the partnership with Golf Australia, Thomas McCrickard, Chief Executive Officer, Capital.com Australia, said: 

“Golf is genuinely embedded in the fabric of Australian sporting life — from elite championship competition to the hundreds of thousands of Australians who hold a registered GA Handicap. It is a sport built on patience, discipline, and the long view — qualities Australian players bring to the course every weekend. Capital.com is proud to support the Australian Open and the GA Handicap, and we look forward to building on this partnership for years to come.”

The 2026 Capital.com Australian Open at Kingston Heath Golf Club will feature back-to-back Masters champion Rory McIlroy, who is returning to Australia under a confirmed two-year commitment.

The tournament will also introduce a new course routing, including a first tee location that has never previously been used in competition.

The same setup is expected to be used for the 2028 Presidents Cup.

Spectator capacity at Kingston Heath will be 25,000 per day.
