McIlroy will equal the record of the late Seve Ballesteros should he pick up his sixth season-long title and trail only Colin Montgomerie’s eight Race to Dubai titles on the all-time list.
A stunning display of ball-striking has earned West Australian Min Woo Lee a share of the lead through three rounds of the DP World Tour’s Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship in Abu Dhabi.
The exchange occurred on the fifth hole where Poulter and longtime caddie Terry Mundy began to discuss his upcoming approach shot, specifically about where the pin was located.
Gone are the Januarys when McIlroy would scribble those ambitions on his airline boarding pass en route to the Middle East. Instead, he now uses a journal.
Lee will leave the amateur world ranking at a career-high No.5 without a professional card, but with a busy 2019 planned as he strives to achieve one or more.
