Rory McIlroy recovered from losing a three-shot lead to claim a dramatic two-shot victory at the DP World Tour Championship and complete Race to Dubai glory in style.
Rory McIlroy signed off his 2024 campaign in style by adding a dramatic DP World Tour Championship victory to his season-long Race to Dubai title. McIlroy started the final round tied for the lead and turned a two-stroke deficit into a three-shot advantage, following a brilliant burst of four consecutive birdies around the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates.
McIlroy started his back nine with a run of two-putt pars before handing Hojgaard a share of the lead when he bogeyed the 13th, with the world No 3 squandering an eight-foot birdie chance at the 14th and also failing to take advantage of the par-five next.
