The Austrian Golf Open, is a men's professional golf tournament on the European Tour. It was founded as the Austrian Open in 1990, and was a European Tour event for seven straight years up to 1996, being held under a variety of names due to regular changes of title sponsor. It dropped down to the Challenge Tour schedule between 1997 and 2005, with a sharp reduction in prize money, before returning to the main tour for the 2006 season.
The 2011 prize fund was €1,000,000.
The tournament is held at the Diamond Country Club in Atzenbrugg, Lower Austria, 35km west of Vienna.
