Jordan Spieth will miss the Farmers Insurance Open on the PGA Tour to play in the returning Singapore Open in January.

The 50th Singapore Open, featuring prize money of at least $1m, will be played on the Sentosa Golf Club's demanding Serapong Course from January 28-31 on the Asian and Japan Golf Tours following a three-year absence.

"Playing in the SMBC Singapore Open is something I'm really looking forward to," said world No 2 Spieth.

"I'm very fortunate to play golf around the world and can't wait to visit Singapore for the first time."

The 22-year-old enjoyed a breakout 2015, winning the US Masters and US Open before going on to claim the lucrative FedEx Cup.
