New Zealander Daniel Hillier: Tyrrell Hatton kept an eye on the scoreboard but managed to hold on for a record-equalling fifth Rolex Series title at the Dubai Desert Classic. He held off New Zealander Daniel Hillier (71) by one shot with fairly safe play on the 18th.

Hatton’s last DP World Tour win was a third Alfred Dunhill Links title in October 2024, and he last won in the Middle East at the 2021 Abu Dhabi Championship.

Hatton ended at 15-under and Laurie Canter (68) who closed birdie-birdie was third at 13-under.
