The Singapore Open was a golf tournament in Singapore that was predominantly part of the Asian Tour schedule. The event was held at Sentosa Golf Club since 2005 and since 2017 had been part of the Open Qualifying Series, giving up to four non-exempt players entry into The Open Championship.

The Singapore Open was founded in 1961 and was one of the tournaments on the first season of the Far East Circuit (later the Asia Golf Circuit) the following year.[1] It remained part of the Asia circuit until 1993 when it became a fixture on the Australasian Tour.[2] After just 3 seasons, it left the Australasian Tour to join the fledgling Asian Tour for that tour's second season in 1996.[3] The event was also co-sanctioned with the European Tour from 2009 to 2012, and with the Japan Golf Tour since 2016.
