DP World Tour : DP World Tour Championship Tee Times
The the times for the DP World Tour Championship are out, click on my link above...
For the first time in the Race to Dubai history (2009) Rory McIlroy has already secured the season long Race To Dubai title with an event to spare, so much like Steve Stricker on the PGA Tour Champions this year, all that's to be decided is this week's Tour Championship and the final rankings and pay outs, on the Earth Course, Jumeirah Golf Estates, Dubai, UAE
As always the field is scheduled in reverse order with #50 and #49 off first at 830hrs GMT.
edit****Jon Rahm etched his name into the record books 12 months ago by becoming the first player to win the DP World Tour Championship for a third time as he notched up a record fifth Rolex Series titles. The Spaniard has since won his second Major Championship earlier this season at the Masters Tournament, having earlier won three PGA TOUR titles in five starts at the start of the year. The Earth Course has also proved a happy hunting ground for Northern Ireland’s McIlroy, who has won the DP World Tour Championship twice in 2012 and 2015 as well as topping the Race to Dubai Rankings four times
The 34-year-old arrives in Dubai assured of becoming European Number One for a fifth time and thus moving closer to Colin Montgomerie’s record of eight Harry Vardon Trophies.
1245 1st Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy are the final pairing.
