The European Tour has announced a significant increase in the prize fund for next year's Irish Open, with the prize money available reaching €5 million.
The prize fund for the 2021 event held at Mount Juliet and won by Australian Lucas Herbert was €3m.
European Tour organisers also announced that three tournaments in 2022 will be co-sanctioned between the European Tour and PGA Tour as part of the strategic alliance between the organisations.
The Barbasol Championship, Barracuda Championship, both played in US, and Genesis Scottish Open will count towards both the European Tour's Race to Dubai and PGA Tour's FedEx Cup standings.
It was also announced that prize money for the Irish Open will increase to $6 million (€5m) from 2022, which is nearly double what was on offer at the 2021 event at Mount Juillet.
The Scottish Open (July 4-10) will remain a Rolex Series event and retains its place in the schedule ahead of the Open Championship until at least 2025.
The field will be split between members of both Tours.
European Tour chief executive Keith Pelley said: "We are delighted to welcome Genesis as a title sponsor of a European Tour event for the first time.
"Genesis has a strong history of sponsorship on the PGA Tour through The Genesis Invitational and their commitment to the Scottish Open will further enhance one of our premier events of the season."
Genesis will take over the title sponsorship of the event from abrdn, with the venue for the event to be confirmed at a later date. It has been staged at the Renaissance Club for the last three years.
Fifty European Tour members will be able to contest the Barbasol Championship and Barracuda Championship, which will be played in the same week as the Genesis Scottish Open and 150th Open Championship respectively.
