The DP World Tour Play-offs have arrived and some of the circuit’s biggest names have descended on Yas Links for the Abu Dhabi Aldar Championship.

Rory McIlroy is out to try and claw back at least some of the points difference between him and Race to Dubai leader Eugenio Chacarra, with the pair partnering Patrick Reed in the final group on day one.

Meanwhile, Jon Rahm is making his first start since outlining his reasons for departing LIV Golf permanently and Tommy Fleetwood is hoping to go one better than 12 months ago when he lost to defending champion Aaron Rai in a playoff.

And that’s without even mentioning the likes of Adam Scott and Tyrrell Hatton who are perfectly capable of reigning supreme around these parts.

Given it’s the first round of the DP World Tour Play-offs, the tee-time order is quite straightforward for the time being.
