Here we are at the Championship of the DP Tour and the Finals of the Slinger Playoffs . . . It is Go Time!  Not surprisingly the final event of the DP Tour is held in . . .  Dubai.  First played in 2009 when the Race to Dubai replaced the European Order of Merit . . . The first winner was current LIV star Lee Westwood . . . The Earth Course where this will be played is a Greg Norman design.

 

 

 

 

 

Is now a good time to discuss Middle East money in golf?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This event brings the top 50 in the Race for a chance at a $3 million first place check out of a $10 million purse.  Jon Rahm is a three time champion in this event.  Matt and Rory have won it twice.  While the winner this week is still up in the air . . . Rory has already locked up the Race to Dubai title . . . despite not really playing much on the DP tour . . . that says . . . something 

 

Congratulations to Wendy and JJ for making it to the finals.   The 7 and 8 seeds take all the rest of us down.  Choose well and may the best Slinger win . . .

 

 

 

 

 

For the rest of us mere mortals it is . . .
