Journeyman Paul Waring of England birdied the final two holes to fend off late challenges from Tyrrell Hatton and Rory McIlroy and win the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship at Yas Links in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.
The destination of the title was eventually decided in Guerrier’s favour, the 39-year old prevailing with a par at the ninth extra hole (equalling the DP World Tour record).
Augusta National Golf Club has extended a special invitation to LIV Golf’s Joaquin Niemann, as well as Ryo Hisatsune and Thorbjorn Olesen, to the 2024 Masters tournament.
It is no surprise, as the DP World Tour resumes this week in Dubai, to see the 10 players who qualified for their PGA Tour cards last season planning the months ahead in their own individual ways.
Understandably emotional only eight months after being cleared of wrongdoing after alleged incidents on a flight from the US to London saw him end up in a court of law, Olesen was close to tears more than once.
Olesen had been suspended from the European Tour since the incident, however with the trial not set until December 2021, the tour lifted Olesen’s suspension.
With seven automatic qualifiers for the European Ryder Cup team already in place, Thorbjorn Olesen’s T-20 finish was enough to claim the eighth and final spot
