PGA TOUR stars line up for shot at Race to Dubai titlePGA TOUR stars line up for shot at Race to Dubai title

Patrick Reed and Collin Morikawa are among several PGA TOUR players trying to unseat Europe's top stars as the 2020 season-long Race To Dubai champion on the European Tour this week. Reed, an eight-time PGA TOUR winner, leads the European Tour's Race to Dubai standings heading into this week's DP World Tour Championship at Jumeirah Golf Estates. He leads the way in Europe's season-long race thanks to his victory in the World Golf Championships-Mexico Championship and top-15 finishes in this year's three majors. He is trying to become the first American to win the Race to Dubai. His closest competitors are a pair of familiar faces. Reed's fellow American, Collin Morikawa, is third in the standings with the knowledge that regardless of what Reed, or current second-place holder Tommy Fleetwood, do in Dubai, he can also take it all with a win. The 23-year-old is in great shape after his PGA Championship triumph in August, his third PGA TOUR win, and is also the main contender for the European Tour Rookie of the Year. Veteran Englishman Lee Westwood is playing in his 12th consecutive DP World Tour Championship, and at fourth in the standings is the only other player guaranteed to become Europe's No. 1 player should he win this week's tournament. The 47-year-old won the inaugural tournament in 2009 and is the only player to feature in each edition since. The 65-player field is composed of the leading 60 members available on the Race to Dubai, plus 2019 PGA TOUR Rookie of the Year Sungjae Im, who is an affiliate member) and four other members inside the top 75 in the world ranking who were not otherwise exempt. Viktor Hovland, winner of last week's Mayakoba Golf Classic presented by UNIFIN, is among that group. Hovland, who like Morikawa turned pro just last year, rose to No. 15 in the world after his win in Mexico. Hovland joined legends Rory McIlroy, Seve Ballesteros, Sergio Garcia and Jon Rahm as the only Europeans in the last 75 years to win multiple PGA TOUR titles before turning 24. Hovland also joined the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jerry Pate and Lanny Wadkins as the only players in the last 75 years to win the U.S. Amateur and multiple PGA TOUR titles before turning 24. Everyone else on that list won at least one major and a PLAYERS Championship. While the top four have their destiny in their own hands, the 2,000 points available to the winner means mathematically any player could become Race to Dubai Champion with victory in the DP World Tour Championship. Fleetwood and Westwood have both won the Race to Dubai before, in 2017 and in 2009 respectively, with Westwood also winning the former Order of Merit in 2000. Christian Bezuidenhout, who is coming off back-to-back victories in South Africa, Victor Perez, Aaron Rai and Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard champion Tyrrell Hatton would be Race to Dubai Champion with victory provided Reed doesn't finish second alone. The DP World Tour Championship winner receives $3 million while a bonus pool will be awarded to those members finishing within the top 5 on the final 2020 Race to Dubai Rankings, starting at $500,000 for the winner.

Patrick Cantlay takes two-shot lead into final round at TOUR ChampionshipPatrick Cantlay takes two-shot lead into final round at TOUR Championship

ATLANTA – And then there were three. The TOUR Championship had turned into a runaway for Patrick Cantlay when he made four birdies in a stretch of five holes for a four-shot lead over Jon Rahm and an eight-shot lead over 2017 FedExCup champ Justin Thomas halfway through round three at East Lake. But “Patty Ice” – the moniker he earned with clutch putting in winning the BMW Championship – cracked a little with bogeys at the 11th, 14th and 16th holes. After an uneven 67, he leads by two over Rahm (68) and a five over Thomas (65) going into Sunday’s final round. The lead would have been one and four, respectively, but Cantlay sank a 23-foot birdie on 18. “I enjoy pressure golf because it’s everything I’ve practiced to do,” he said. Cantlay had not historically played East Lake well, with his best in three starts a T20. He hadn’t even made it to the 30-man TOUR Championship since 2019. But on Sunday, when he will play with Rahm for the 21st time in his career, he will be playing for the $15 million first prize, plus, very likely, Player of the Year honors as the only player with four wins this season. Rahm, meanwhile, could make the argument for Player of the Year if he gets it done on Sunday. It would give the world No. 1 two big wins this season – U.S. Open, TOUR Championship – and the FedExCup. He also is on track to win the scoring title and lead the TOUR with 15 top-10s. It’s been a peculiar season for Thomas, a former world No. 1 who has dropped to sixth. Since his epic comeback victory at THE PLAYERS Championship in March he has notched just one top-10 finish, a T4 at THE NORTHERN TRUST to open the FedExCup Playoffs last month. Also, Thomas has hit just 12 of 28 fairways the last two days. “I gained some shots on the leaders today, and that’s what’s most important,” he said. Said Rahm, who was in negative numbers in Strokes Gained: Tee to Green for the third round, “Not my best. Great off the tee, I must say … Just wasn’t as sharp as I wanted to be with my irons. It was one of those days where there was a lot of in-between numbers.” Kevin Na (66, 13 under) has an outside chance at seven back. Abraham Ancer (bogey-free 65) and 2014 FedExCup winner Billy Horschel (67) are 10 back. Cantlay began the week with a four-shot lead over Rahm and a six-shot lead over Thomas. The No. 1 seed and 54-hole leader’s closing birdie on 18 seemed potentially bigger than just one shot, given that Thomas three-putted the hole for his only bogey and Rahm could only manage a par. “I thought it was big for momentum,” Cantlay said. “It was a nice putt to make, especially being out of position on that hole. And I’ll take that momentum into tomorrow.” Four of Rahm’s five TOUR wins have come when he’s trailed through 54 holes. For Thomas, it’s six out of 14. He was hoping to be just four back – he was three behind leader Lee Westwood through three rounds at THE PLAYERS – but now the number is five. Rahm said he was proud of himself for finding a way to hang in there without his best stuff, giving himself a chance Sunday. Meanwhile, “Patty Ice” Cantlay just keeps pressing ever closer to FedExCup history. “Getting in that moment is exactly why I’ve practiced for all those hours growing up and all those hours my whole life,” he said. “And so getting to do it when it’s important, I mean, that’s exactly why I play golf. I love it.”
