(Reuters) - Next month's $7 million Turkish Airlines Golf Open could be in doubt after the European Tour said it was urgently investigating rocket attacks on Friday in Antalya, the southern region where the tournament is due to take place.

According to the privately owned Dogan news agency, two rockets were fired, apparently aimed at a fuel tanker. One hit a fish store and the other landed on open ground, with neither causing casualties.

"As a matter of priority we are currently investigating today's incident ... with our security consultants and local authorities," the tour said in a statement at the British Masters.
