 DP World Tour, Road to Mallorca : Rolex Grand Final Tee Times History

The Rolex Grand Final supported by The R&A takes place this week from October 30-November 2 at Club de Golf Alcanada in Mallorca, and marks the 30th anniversary of the season-ending showpiece.

Here is everything you need to know as the 2025 Road to Mallorca reaches its conclusion…

It all comes down to this

After 28 events spanning 18 countries and three continents, the final event on the 2025 Road to Mallorca is here. With 20 DP World Tour cards on the line and one Road to Mallorca Rankings winner to be crowned, there is all to play for this week.

Every single person in the 45-man field can earn promotion. Spaniard Victor Pastor (pictured), who is the last man in the field, and Englishman Jamie Rutherford, who currently occupies 20th in the Rankings and the final promotion place, are separated by just 161 points. The winner at Alcanada will be awarded 640 points, meaning no-one is out of the running to earn a life-changing card on Golf’s Global Tour. It really does all come down to this.

Club de Golf Alcanada

Club de Golf Alcanada hosts the HotelPlanner Tour’s season finale for a fifth time this week, and for the fourth time in successive years. In 2019 the Alcúdia venue made its debut, with Italian Francesco Laporta coming out on top. Three years later it returned to the schedule and it has remained the home of the final event on the Road to Mallorca ever since.

The course at Alcanada provides the perfect test. Designed by legendary golf course architect Robert Trent Jones Jr., the layout includes incredible views of the sea, mountains and the iconic lighthouse situated on a nearby island. First opened in 2003 after three years of construction, it now houses outstanding practice facilities alongside the coastal course.

The man to catch

JC Ritchie became the sixth different player to hit the Road to Mallorca summit when he won for a third time this season in the Italian Challenge Open at the end of September. With that win, the South African secured automatic promotion to the DP World Tour and is now looking to conclude an outstanding campaign by ending the year as the Number One. With a 101-point lead over Austrian Maximilian Steinlechner, Ritchie is in pole position to do just that, however Steinlechner is one of seven other players that could mathematically catch him.

A shot at history

Adri Arnaus has an opportunity to write his name into the record books when he tees it up at Club de Golf Alcanada this week. With victory the Spaniard would not only secure his return to the DP World Tour, but he would become the first player to win the season finale on two separate occasions. Arnaus birdied the final hole of the 2018 edition of the event, held in the UAE, to win by one-stroke and secure his promotion to the DP World Tour. 

He would go on to become a winner on Golf’s Global Tour in 2022 at the Catalunya Championship on home soil, and despite narrowly missing out on retaining his playing privileges, has shown consistency throughout 2025 to give himself a chance of a quick return.
