2024 Challenge Tour graduates explained

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]
