The DP World Tour season concluded on Sunday with the DP Tour World Championship in Dubai. Matt Fitzpatrick won the dramatic final defeating Rory McIlroy in a playoff, but McIlroy’s second win was enough to claim the Dubai Open title for the fourth year in a row, and the seventh time in McIlroy’s career.
And at the end of the tournament, the results of another year-long competition were set in stone: the 10 DP World Tour players who earned PGA Tour cards for 2026.
