For a second year running there will be 56 players lining up for the final tournament sprint to the Race to Dubai winning tape.
The normal field of Europe’s top-60 has been cut again by four players and this year with Ernie Els (17th on the Race to Dubai) electing not to play, fellow South African Charl Schwartzel (22nd) who did not qualify in playing just one of the opening three Final Series events.
As well, Spain’s Sergio Garcia (13th) also only contested one event of the last four and Sweden’s Alex Noren (51st) has withdrawn with a back injury.
