Jon Rahm won the Abu Dhabi Aldar Championship by two shots, shooting a final-round 67 to finish at 23 under and hold off Tyrrell Hatton; Rory McIlroy finished third at 19 under. It was Rahm’s first DP World Tour title since 2022 and his first win since announcing his departure from LIV Golf. McIlroy moved to second in the Race to Dubai standings ahead of next week’s season finale, while Rahm also remains in contention.
