Patrick Reed, at -14, held strong in the final round of the Hero Dubai Desert Classic to secure victory and claim the Rolex Series title at Emirates Golf Club. The American’s steady performance across all four rounds—69, 66, 67, and a closing 72—earned him 1,335 Race to Dubai points and a well-deserved win.

Andy Sullivan, at -10, finished second after a solid final round, securing 889 points. Despite a strong push during the tournament, Sullivan could not catch Reed and had to settle for second place.

Julien Guerrier, at -9, climbed into solo third with a strong final round, earning 500 points. His impressive weekend showed resilience and precise iron play.

Three players tied for fourth at eight-under: Nicolai Højgaard, Francesco Molinari, and Jayden Schaper, all at -8. Each posted good final rounds and shared 339.73 points. Molinari started strong but saw his early lead slip away, though he still achieved a top-five finish.

Marcus Armitage and Ricardo Gouveia, both at -7, rounded out the top ten, earning 206.13 points each. Their consistent play throughout the week ensured they finished well in a tightly packed leaderboard.

Reed’s win is a significant early achievement in the DP World Tour season. He now holds both the Rolex Series prestige and momentum for the Race to Dubai.
