Jon Rahm will make his debut at the Abu Dhabi Aldar Championship, marking his return to golf's established tours after a stint on the breakaway LIV Golf tour. The Spanish Ryder Cup star, a two-time Major Champion, will compete in the penultimate DP World Tour event, Yas Links, from November 5 to 8. Having previously won the season-ending DP World Tour Championship at Jumeirah Golf Estates three times, Rahm is eager to claim his first victory in Abu Dhabi.
This will be his first appearance in the UAE capital, where he has previously enjoyed some of his finest successes. Fellow stars like Rory McIlroy and Patrick Reed, who are also vying for Race to Dubai glory, will be in attendance. Reed recently announced he is exiting LIV Golf, hoping to return to the PGA Tour via Europe. With the top 10 Race to Dubai players eligible for PGA Tour cards, Rahm is considering a return to the United States, but would not be eligible until August 28, 2027, due to an automatic year ban for LIV players.
