$10M Swing Returns to Icons Series - The Richest Hole In Golf

Icons Series has announced the return of The $10M Swing – the richest hole in golf – as part of the Reignwood Icons of Football 2026, taking place on 31 January – 1 February 2026 in Bangkok.

Back by huge demand following its dramatic debut, The $10M Swing will once again see every competing Icon attempt a single shot at glory on a specially created par-3 at Robinswood Golf Club. 


With the pressure amplified, a hole-in-one will trigger a record-breaking $10 million prize - making this the biggest single prize available on a shot in world golf.


This year, the stakes are even higher. More players, more coverage, more fans, and more ways for supporters around the world to get involved. For 2026, every player confirmed for the Reignwood Icons of Football will step up individually for their shot - including confirmed names already announced such as:


Team England (partial roster)

Jimmy Bullard
Michael Carrick

Robbie Fowler
Joe Hart

Paul Ince

Phil Jagielka

Jermain Jenas
Phil Jones

Teddy Sheringham

John Terry
Theo Walcott


Team World (partial roster)

Gabriel Batistuta
Nigel De Jong

Luís Figo
Ryan Giggs

David Ginola

Ruud Gullit

Aaron Ramsey

Andriy Shevchenko

Nemanja Vidić

Dwight Yorke

Gianfranco Zola


If any Icon strikes the perfect shot and lands an ace, $10 million is unlocked with the money being split across the player, charity and three lucky fans. 




Fans Can Win Big 

This year, fans are at the heart of the action with supporters given the chance to win money by backing their favorite Icon. 

In a free entry mechanic on the Icons Series website, fans from qualifying nations can choose the football Icon they think will hit a hole-in-one. If that player is successful, one third of the total $10M jackpot will be split three ways, with three lucky fans who selected the correct player being drawn at random to receive a life changing sum of money. 


Last year delivered tension, celebration, and global headlines with Liverpool FC legend Robbie Fowler going close to the jackpot. This year is set to be even bigger with more drama and excitement. 


Thomas Brookes, CEO, Icons Series:  “Last year proved that The $10M Swing isn’t just a golf moment - it’s a cultural moment. The atmosphere, pressure and drama it created was unlike anything in sport. For 2026 we’ve gone one better, with bigger names and more ways for fans to be part of it. If someone makes that ace, it will go down as one of the greatest single shots ever seen.”
