… Jumeirah Estates, Dubai Connor Syme is quietly confident there’s an automatic 2023 Open Championship tee time in his golf bag as a reward heading to his final event of the season at the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai. Syme, at 33rd on the Race to Dubai money list, is three places shy of the top-30 that at tournament end will be rewarded with a Royal Liverpool tee time while his third round 70 moved him to two-under and just outside the leading 20 in the US$4m season finale.

One of those was Spain’s Adrian Otaegui, who was drawn to compete alongside the World No. 1 on day two of the season-ending DP World Tour Championship. And strangely in finishing tied at five-under the pair will be out on day three here in Dubai. Their day two pairing brought suggestions of ...

... Jumeirah Estates, Dubai  World No. 1 Rory McIlroy sensationally lit the fuse in his quest to end the year as DP World No. 1 finishing birdie, birdie and eagle on day two of the season-ending DP World Tour Championship here in Dubai. McIlroy emerged from an average round in being level par after 15 holes to birdie both his 16th and 17th holes and then brought the crowd to their feet, sensationally landing his 225-yard second shot to just four-feet at the last for a virtual tap-in eagle ‘3’.

…. Jumeirah Estates, Dubai  As Ewen Ferguson will attest. There is spectatular eagles, fabulous birdies and just as impressive par-saves. The double DP World Tour winning Scot pulled off what was a great par-save up the par-5 18th that hit the hole on route to eventual level par score of 72 to remain at four-over in his first showing at the DP World Tour Championship here in Dubai. Ferguson’s final hole par was a great reward after he and his caddy looked very undecided on the final ...

… Jumeirah Estates, Dubai The five Scots teeing-up this week were each tested in sweltering conditions on the opening round of the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai. Up front, the England duo of US Open champ, Matthew Fitzpatrick and Tyrrell Hatton, lead the elite 50-player field with seven-under 65s and Fitzpatrick lighting-up the course with five birdies in succession off the bat. However, the birdies dried-up as Fitzpatrick played the closing 11 holes in just two-under. Richie Ramsay ...
