Ups and Downs: Rahm’s Early Exit and McIlroy’s Battle in Dubai!

In a surprising turn of events at the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai, both Rory McIlroy and Henrik Stenson found themselves on the wrong side of the cut line. McIlroy struggled with rounds of 78 and 75, finishing at a challenging 13 over par. Meanwhile, Stenson faced an even tougher day on the course, carding scores of 75 and 80 to end up at 15 over.

Jon Rahm also had his share of challenges, posting rounds of 78 and a better but still disappointing 69 to finish at 5 over par, missing out on advancing further in the tournament.

With total earnings soaring to an impressive €5,736,325 for the season, Fitzpatrick has certainly made his mark!
