Rory McIlroy Aims to Match Seve Ballesteros with Sixth Race to Dubai Title

Despite missing a major win in 2024, McIlroy seeks to solidify his legacy with another DP World Tour victory.

Rory McIlroy is close to securing his sixth Race to Dubai title, needing a top-11 finish at the DP World Tour Championship.
A win would match Seve Ballesteros's record and bring McIlroy closer to Colin Montgomerie's all-time record of eight titles.
McIlroy's 2024 season included three wins but was overshadowed by a missed opportunity at the US Open, where he narrowly lost to Bryson DeChambeau.
McIlroy plans to reduce his tournament schedule in 2025, focusing more on the DP World Tour events and cutting back on some PGA Tour appearances.
Billy Horschel, a frequent DP World Tour participant, emphasizes the value of international play, contrasting with many American golfers who focus primarily on the PGA Tour.
