The UAE Challenge is a golf tournament on the Challenge Tour, Europe's second tier men's professional golf tour, held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
First played in 2023, the event was held at the Gary Player-designed Saadiyat Beach Golf Club. It is played back-to-back with the Abu Dhabi Challenge, with 30 spots allocated to the Emirates Golf Federation for each event. In 2024, through winning the Al Hamra Men's Amateur Open, 17 year-old amateur Oscar Craig received a spot and made the cut with stepfather Tommy Fleetwood as his caddie.
