The Turkish Airlines World Golf Final was a golf tournament held 9–12 October 2012 in Turkey. The tournament took place at the Antalya Golf Club, Sultan course, in Belek, on the Turkish riviera. It featured four of the five top ranked players: Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods, Lee Westwood and Justin Rose in an eight-player field. They competed for a first prize of $1.5 million from a total purse of $5.2 million. The event was not sanctioned by any tour and was replaced by the Turkish Airlines Open in 2013 on the European Tour.

Because the event conflicted with the PGA Tour's Frys.com Open, all eight players had to be granted releases by the PGA Tour, in exchange for which they agreed to play the Frys.com Open at least once in the next three years.
