European Tour Omega Dubai Desert Classic final scoreboard http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/season=2019/tournamentid=2019012/leaderboard/index.html#/results
We are in the grips of an Arctic wintry blast with blowing snow early here on Sunday morning in Toronto, nearly -20*c and I am watching young Bryson DeChambeau lapping a strong European Tour field on the other side of the world at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic in perfect conditions, hot and sunny.
He has won his 1st International event in record setting form shooting 64 for -24, 8 shots ahead of playing partner and last year's winner Haotong Li.
In 2nd place at -17 is Matt Wallace and joining Li at -16 are stars in their own right including Sergio Garcia and Ian Poulter
Veteran broadcaster Jay Townsend was moved to say " Besides Tiger, I haven't seen anyone play this well in a long long time"..
In his last nine starts he has had 4 wins and the rest were all within T20.!
Next week he will join Justin Rose, Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson for the first ever pro tournament in Saudi Arabia.
Haotong Li has been assessed a 2 shot penalty because his caddie stood behind him briefly as he was taking his stance to tap in his final putt. Caddies are not allowed to help players line up to the appropriate line of a putt by standing behind them. This is going to cause a ballyhoo as there was no intent whatsoever, and Li had not taken his stance.
