Golf fans, we have some big-hitting news. The Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship is taking place at Yas Links. Running from 7 to 10 November, the event includes Olympic Silver Medallist Tommy Fleetwood, and former World Number Ones Adam Scott and Justin Rose.
Tommy hails from Merseyside, England, and is now based in Dubai, UAE. He has claimed three of his seven DP World Tour victories in the UAE. He won the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship in 2017 and 2018, and the Race to Dubai in 2017. Plus, he won a Silver Medal for Great Britain at the Paris Olympics 2024.
Tommy explained: “I’m very proud to be a two-time winner of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. It’s an iconic trophy and an iconic tournament in this part of the world. It’s really exciting that we now have these two events back-to-back at the end of the season, and it’ll be nice to finish the season so close to home now that I’m based in the UAE.”
Adam hails from Adelaide, Australia, and has moved up to second on the Race to Dubai Rankings in Partnership with Rolex. He explained: “The UAE is always a place I’ve enjoyed playing golf in and I’m excited to compete in this year’s Play-Offs. I’ve had some good performances there over the last few seasons and I’d love to finish the season strong in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.”
Justin comes from Johannesburg, South Africa. In 2013, he won the US Open. He explained: “I’m looking forward to finishing my season in the UAE. The Play-Offs will certainly add an exciting new dynamic to the end of the year and I’m excited to compete in Abu Dhabi again. I’ve been fortunate to have achieved a lot in my career, but a win in the UAE has escaped me thus far. I’d love nothing more than to change that this year and finish the season on a high note, before returning to Abu Dhabi for the Team Cup in January.”
The Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship will welcome the top 70 players from the Race to Dubai Rankings in Partnership with Rolex at the conclusion of the Genesis Korea Championship. The Top 50 players at the end of the week will then advance to the season-ending DP World Tour Championship in Dubai.
Tickets to the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship are available now.
