The players to have reached 500 appearances on the DP World Tour
By
As Marc Warren makes his 500th appearance at this week's Austrian Alpine Open presented by Kitzbühel Tirol, we take a look at the full list of players who have also reached the same milestone on the DP World Tour.
In the 54-year history of the DP World Tour, there have been 10,517 players that have competed in at least one event. While just over seven per cent of those have reached the milestone of 100 events, the number of players who have longevity enough to reach the summit of 500 is just 51. More than that, and the number dwindles further, underlining just how much of an achievement it is to achieve such longevity in the game.
David Howell currently leads the way in appearances on 726, but he is just one of four to have reached that impressive number - with Søren Kjeldsen the most recent addition to that list.
Warren's 500th appearance comes 30 years after Carl Mason became the first player to reach the milestone at the 1996 BMW International Open, at the age of 42.
Since then, there have been players from 12 different countries to play over 500 events, with Peter Baker the youngest to have done it at the age of 36 at the 2004 KLM Open, and Sandy Lyle the oldest at 56, doing so at the 2014 Masters Tournament.
