For the second week in a row on the DP World Tour, the market is dominated by one man. A week ago, Rory McIlroy came up just short at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. Advance seven days, and Jon Rahm is dominating the market for the Open de Espana.
The weather turned decidedly wintery for the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland last week, but that won’t be an issue as the DP World Tour pitches up in Madrid for the Open de Espana. Warm and sunny weather will greet the players at Club de Campo in Madrid, and all eyes will be on Jon Rahm as he bids for a third win in the event. Ad Rahm was successful in 2018 and 2019, and a victory this week would take him alongside the legendary Seve Ballesteros on three wins in his home open.
Tournament host Tiger Woods was not listed in the initial field for the 20-man Hero World Challenge in Albany, Bahamas in December that was released on Tuesday but could still be added as three exemption slots will be named at a later date.
Tiger Woods was not listed in the initial field for the 20-man Hero World Challenge in Albany, Bahamas in December that was released on Tuesday but could still be added as three exemption slots will be named at a later date. Woods has played in three majors this year after a February 2021 car crash that nearly cost him his right leg but has not given any indication when he will tee it up next.
Rory McIlroy feels a home Ryder Cup in Italy is the perfect stage for an overhaul of the European team. European stalwarts Lee Westwood, Sergio Garcia, Ian Poulter and Paul Casey are unlikely to be eligible following their moves to LIV Golf. Ad McIlroy is set to line up alongside familiar faces Jon Rahm, Shane Lowry and Tommy Fleetwood, but there could be a host of rookies such as Robert MacIntrye, Rasmus Hojgaard and his brother Nicolai in the mix.
Shane Lowry has lashed out at the “absolutely disgusting” amounts of money being thrown at golfers, saying it is “going to p*** people off” who are average fans of the sport. The Irishman broke a three-year winless run when edging out Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm to claim the BMW PGA Championship title. Ad Lowry pocketed £1.175m for his Wentworth win, but said it was only after checking his phone that he was aware of his haul.
Shane Lowry believes the “disgusting” amounts of money in professional golf risks alienating fans and that he “never contemplated” joining LIV Golf as he feels it is bad for the game.
Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald has thrown down the gauntlet to Europe’s next generation ahead of next year’s showdown in Rome. Qualification for the event with the United States began with last week’s BMW Championship at Wentworth with eventual winner Shane Lowry, Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm setting the early pace.
