McIlroy Seeks 7th Race to Dubai Title to Cap a Year of Unforgettable Wins
McIlroy aims to secure a seventh Race to Dubai title and approach Colin Montgomerie's record with 2,000 points at stake in the season finale.
- On Thursday, Rory McIlroy tees off at the World Tour Championship at The Earth course, Dubai, in his final tournament of the 2025 season.
- With a roughly 767-point edge over Penge, McIlroy sits atop the Race to Dubai standings, with only three players—McIlroy, Penge, and Hatton—still able to claim the season-long title.
- With 2,000 points for the winner, Penge must win and have McIlroy finish outside the top-three or tie for second with McIlroy dropping down the leaderboard.
- McIlroy's career haul of six order of merit titles positions him second, and a win this week would move him to seven, narrowing his gap to Montgomerie's record eight.
- On Tuesday the European Tour unveiled the Rory McIlroy Award, a new trophy to be presented next season to the best performer across all four majors, with McIlroy ineligible.
