This year the tournament has special attention since players like Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, and Shane Lowry are in the field. McIlroy has returned to his home country after a long time. He is back on the European Tour for the first time since 2019.  

The total prize money for the 2021 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open is €3,000,000. And it is the standard 16.67 percent payout according to the European Tour’s prize money distribution chart. The entire field is competing to get the highest share from the total purse of 3 Million Euros.
