Rory McIlroy clinches sixth Race to Dubai title of his career

Rory McIlroy claimed the sixth Race to Dubai title of his career after Thriston Lawrence finished in midfield at the DP World Tour Championship.

The Northern Irishman only needed a top-11 finish at Jumeirah Golf Estates to reach the summit of the season rankings, with South African Lawrence the only player able to deny him with a win in Dubai.

However, Lawrence’s challenge never materialised and when he came home in one under par for the event, McIlroy secured his third successive Race to Dubai crown with five holes left in his final round.

Six-time! Rory McIlroy is the 2024 Race to Dubai champion, matching Seve Ballesteros' number of Order of Merit titles ⛳
