The DP World Tour resumes its 2024 season with the first event of a five-week stretch in the Middle East as the inaugural Dubai Invitational marks the start of the International Swing. World Number Two Rory McIlroy will be at the Dubai Creek Resort this week. The Northern Irishman has enjoyed great success in middle east, claiming five of his 16 DP World Tour titles in Dubai. The 34-year-old begins the new year aiming to win the sixth Harry Vardon Trophy of his career. Six-time DP World Tour winner Tommy Fleetwood will be in Dubai this week. He’s making back-to-back appearances on the DP World Tour as the Englishman looks to build on momentum generated from an impressive 2023 season, which included his second Ryder Cup win, and a runner up finish in Dubai at the DP World Tour Championship. DP World Tour Championship winner Nicolai Højgaard will also fancy his chances this week. He’ll be looking to kick on from a successful 2023 which included victories as part of Continental Europe in the inaugural Hero Cup and Team Europe in the Ryder Cup at Marco Simone, as well as earning PGA TOUR playing privileges for 2024 via the FedEx Cup. Others to look out for are Luke Donald, Francesco Molinari and Thriston Lawrence.

He’s a player that steps up when he plays with good players he’s got one today next to him perfect t-shot they two both own two of the lowest rounds of the week it was a 62 from maroy to open his campaign a 63 from Fleetwood yesterday what do today hold we will find

Out just didn’t quite carry up the little Ridge in the green it’s a very small Ridge but it right down the flag the grain’s growing all over the place unlike most of the greens it’s unpredictable on this green don’t get me wrong the greens are perfect

But the pace keep an eye on that held such a good one on the first yesterday confidently a lovely Pace that was a little bit of a dribbly one but tricky and it is so the lead remains one there they March to the second the PA four his head’s nodding where is this

Going for Tommy I like threewood today get it on The Fairway leave yourself 60 yards so you can spin it hitting driver down here today leaves for a fiddly fiddly little chip I’m going to go Tommy Fleetwood is my bet Andrew who are you taking well

I’ll just go for the other one out a [Applause] devil yeah I’m thinking maybe 19 20 probably gets it done big moments these stries it in yeah good response that from Tommy takes his one shot lead once more how close can Fleet we get to this very

Close bar one that’s as good as we’ve seen great job tremendous response there from Tommy Fleetwood we had that sitation a couple of holes ago Ro M Ro makes birdie first then Fleetwood has to follow in well it’s what I want to see for Fleetwood cuz I actually think he’ll respond to

Rory putting pressure on him I think he’s good under that sort of [Applause] pressure nice thanks that’s a perfect line two drawers of the ball up the right drift it into the middle camers all the way around that’ll be a wedge just a little bit of help in there probably three Paces of

Help yeah it should be a good number this it should be spot on and is nice shot that’s a good shot from food giving him him himself a chance here knowing that M Roy M just hit in the water look like it moved a little early on him unexpectedly yeah good sign

Though two on his playing partner brilliant utterly brilliant unreal utterly brilliant amazing shot landed exactly where radar head just to that front portion into the grain over the little Ridge in the green and then it slowly eased itself snuggling past the flag to leave an up fill but to get one at the

Seventh just move on him so par at the seventh walks on little Shake of the head he knows that that was as good a look as anyone in the field will have at a birdie three the rough down the left hand side isn’t that thick

Give him 10 balls he’ll get two on there so aiming way left trying to kind of slice [Applause] It I think he maybe just try to slide this a bit too much and the ball never went for Fleetwood yeah this sand is nice for the sort of firm releas he one it’s quite dry and how about that Tommy that is just up there that is up there he’s got his name on his bag he does this started engraving his name in the trophy what a

Shot indeed he does Sweetwood with a body at 10 third of the days he’s him at 18 under I’d like to see the hole a little narrower it’s a good hole don’t get me wrong but it’s cut very wide the further left you go with the flag on the right is the best

Angle that Lo just fine the Green Falls from front right back towards the back edge of the green so it’s one of those greens that slopes from front to back which you don’t see very often bit of a s Andrews green solid from Fleetwood bit on the safe

Side but gives himself a good birdie look yeah similar to Smith so we know what that one’s going to do we saw Jordan Smith over read this and just been done for Pace yeah just wondering whether it was more of a a different angle looked like it was almost from identical spot from

Smith and yet that moved a lot [Applause] more Tommy Fleet would just hold this off a little or he didn’t that ball didn’t budge just left of it to the heart of it normally say a very good tidy shot almost exactly where he’s aiming but

He’s you can see he’s a partner in very tight be big boost should it drop it’s going to turn its head and Miss low and with that he affords maroy to take the lead on his own with the opportunity to come well there’s little question I think we’ve just seen the biggest moment

Of the day certainly the larger shock he can use that slope but Rory maroy doesn’t get much better than that flag tight to the right hand side whoop Daisy he finds the back Edge on the par three fle but that’s not going to stop until a few Paces behind it there little up

Slow down came out a bit Lively that looked like a lot of LOF there Keno didn’t it and he sort of went at it quite crisp there is the chance or two coming home but wow you’ll be giving them away this time of the afternoon on a Sunday not shy needed in the moment could use it and he gets it Tommy Fleetwood the Applause as Fleetwood draws up alongside Tristan Lawrence and Rory mroy come on yeah t- shot just a soft draw spot on starting down the right half dodging a few divits just what’s

Required Bu from Tommy Fleetwood might well take it all how quickly things have changed in the last hour yeah stay there definely floated on him more importantly he’s on the right [Applause] level uncharacteristic error off the tee from marich royan he’s birdied the last two and the first name matched on the Dubai

Invitational trophy belongs to Tommy Fleetwood in a dramatic final round here at Dubai Creek it’s been edge of your seat viewing for the past hour and a half and what a way to finish Tommy uh many congratulations that was quite the dramatic finish wasn’t it I mean what do you make of

That friendly competitiveness yeah I mean it was great um I think you know I was very happy with the way I played today um for large majority of the round felt like I um you know didn’t hold some of the puts that I wanted to I think um it was great

Watching one of the world’s best golfers in Rory um the way that he was playing the back nine the way that he attacked the back nine um and yeah just up and down towards the end really like um sloppy bogey on 16 from not that bad of

An iron shot um then yeah birdie birdie 17 18 so all good what was the key moment for you because of course Rory maoy made that Birdie on 12 to narrow the Gap but also bounced back with another birdie for three in a row to go

All level with a few holes to go yeah at that point what was key for you I was playing very well I was hitting it very solid I looked um distinctly average compared to the way R started playing on that back n but I felt felt very in

Control of my game um and it was just a case of staying patient I think um you know 14 uh you know Rory sort of you know it was unexpected um for him not to just roll that one in for another birdie and um but again again you’re just

Watching him the way he bounc back on 15 the shot shot on 16 the way he played 17 um but for me just stayed pretty patient kept playing I knew I was playing very very well and then um even you know the last two holes played 17 and 18 great

It’s a hot start for your 2024 season you’re obviously jet lies coming over from Hawaii you had that get on with it attitude all in all how proud are you of your performance I’m very happy um feels amazing winning um like almost everybody else in the in

The world go if I don’t win anywhere near as much as I’d like to but um just that winning feeling is great um so happy I came back uh this is obviously where I live and had a lot of support and um yeah obviously it’s great to kick

Off the year with um a great result and uh push on from here you know um feel like I’ve been saying for a long time I’ve been doing a lot of really great things I have amazing people that I’m working with um Win Lose or Draw today

  1. Tommy Fleetwood is now the new World Number 1 player in the World.

    Congratulations to Fleetwood family.

    Always Hippy Dippy player with his style.

    Now you worked hard and now just win on – and the Big ones are yours to win.

    Your life was to win majors as a child. WIN THEM AND DONE!

    ' Best to yaaw Timmy Tommy Cadilac Fleetwood ! '

  2. You show 3 days of only Rory highlights then on the last day only show Tommy nightlights? How often do you get these 2 playing the last round together with only 1 shot in it and you decide to only show one of them? It’s like its all done on purpose just to annoy everyone

  3. Surprised Rory tried to hit that slinging hook with the driver on 18 when there was water down the left. Surely as the best ball striker in golf he should be able to hit something else like a low bullet down the middle of the fairway.

  4. Again why I don’t watch PGA highlights, always just one guy or the guy the PGA wants to win (Rory).

  5. Mcilroy trashes LIV players and an Arab nation then happily plays in the Middle East. Bit confused about freedom of choice me thinks.

  6. Rory throw it away today but you couldn't find a nicer bloke than Tommy to win it , he doesn't get the credit he deserves , even from me lol

  7. Over the past ten years, Rory has consistently played second fiddle, never quite reaching the top spot. However, since the departure of all the talented players to LIV, he has emerged as a new consistent contender. Unfortunately, mentally he seems unable to achieve victory at DP and cross the finish line first anymore. It's clear that Rory acknowledges this fact, making him nothing more than fools gold. LMAO.
