Elvira Joins The Greats Of Spanish Golf Winning In Dubai
Nacho Elvira has joined the greats of Spanish golf in now winning in Dubai emirate.
There was emotional scenes with the over-joyed Elvira greeted by his wife and two children, moments after calmly two-putting the last for par to capture the Dubai Invitational on the host Dubai Creek course.
The 38-year-old Madrid golfer looked to have earned himself a spot in a play-0ff when he superbly birdied the 17th hole, moving to 10-under and tied with Shane Lowry, who was also on 10-under playing the last.
Then ...

Fleetwood, who is also an eight-time DP World Tour champion superbly bounced back from a horror second round 78 in defence of his title, with a ‘that’s more like it’ seven birdie haul in his five-under 66, a dozen shots fewer than a day earlier on the host Dubai Creek ...
Rors Back In Sight, Just Three Adrift & Round To Play In Dubai
Grand Slam winning Rory McIlroy put himself back in frame for possible success, birdieing three of his closing nine holes in a round of 68 for a five-under tally on day three at the Dubai Invitational.
McIlroy was far more akin as the World No. 2, using golf’s traditional ‘Moving Day’ to end the round sharing fourth place on five-under and three adrift of Spain’s Nacho Elvira, who signed for a second straight 68 to be leading by two shots, at eight-under on the host Dubai ...
