All Tee Times: https://www.europeantour.com/dpworld-tour/austrian-alpine-open-presented-by-kitzbuhel-tirol-2026/tee-times?round=1 Kitzbühel, 27 May 2026. – Austrian golf superstar Sepp Straka will tee off at 7:50 a.m. on Thursday from the 10th tee alongside last year’s German champion Nicolai von Dellingshausen and South African Casey Jarvis in the $2.75 million Austrian Alpine Open presented by Kitzbühel – Tirol. This is Straka’s first tournament in Austria since 2018, so Austrian golf fans are eagerly looking forward to the event in Tyrol.

Immediately after Straka, at 8:00 a.m., Maximilian Steinlechner will also tee off from the 10th tee in his home tournament. The local Tyrolean hero will play in a flight with South African Thriston Lawrence and Frenchman Martin Couvra. Bernd Wiesberger will not tee off until the afternoon. The winner of the China Open will begin his opening round at 1:05 p.m. from Tee 1 alongside German Freddy Schott and Swede Mikael Lindberg.

The debut of Red Bull Final3 promises pure excitement

 At the DP World Tour event in Kitzbühel, Red Bull Final3 adds an extra challenge right where golf is already at its most thrilling: on the final three holes. Once the cut has been made and the players tee off for the final round on Saturday and Sunday, a separate competition begins within the tournament. That’s because on holes 16, 17, and 18, every stroke suddenly counts double—not just for the leaderboard, but also for the Red Bull Final3.

 The scores from these three holes are tallied together over both days. The player who needs the fewest strokes across the six final holes secures victory in the Red Bull Final3. If there is a tie after the 18th hole on Sunday, the first shot on the 18th—nearest to the pin—will be the deciding factor.

That’s exactly what makes the Red Bull Final3 so special. While many players try to play it safe on the final holes, a whole new dynamic emerges here. Risk-taking is rewarded, precision becomes crucial, and every birdie putt can suddenly make all the difference. For spectators, this means maximum excitement right up to the very last shot, and for the players, it’s an extra stage on which to perform under pressure.

And it’s worth the effort. An exclusive experience at Red Bull Hangar-7 in Salzburg awaits the winner: a personalized tour of the hangar, a unique aerobatic flight in a Flying Bulls aircraft, and, as the perfect finale, a dinner at the world-famous 5-toque restaurant Ikarus, offering the highest level of culinary excellence.
