McIlroy loses playoff but lifts seventh Race to Dubai title
Gulf Today
|November 17, 2025
Rory Mcllroy lost the week-long $IO million DP World Tour Championship on Sunday in a playoff against Matt Fitzpatrick, but did enough to ensure he was crowned the winner of the season-long Race to Dubai champion.

“It's absolutely incredible. I knew I still had a bit of work to do to get over the line in the Race to Dubai,” said Mcllroy, who will remain the world No. 2.
Mcllroy topped the European tour's season ending rankings for a seventh time, and for the fourth season in a row. He broke a tie with Severiano Ballesteros and is one behind Colin Montgomerie, who achieved the feat eight times.
“It seems within touching distance now,” said Mcllroy. “I was the first European to win the Grand Slam and I'd love to be the most successful European in terms of winning Order of Merits and season-long races.”
He added that Ballesteros “was always my dad's favourite player”.
