"This tournament is an important event that offers amazing entertainment both on the course and outside of it," noted Tom Phillips. Present at the press conference at the Dubai Sports Council office were His Excellency Saeed Hareb and Tom Phillips, who also highlighted the significance of the tournament.

Ewen Ferguson expressed his excitement: "It’s always nice to compete in the DP World Tour Championship, especially at the symbolic Earth course, recognized as one of the best in the game. With lovely weather and excellent conditions, Dubai is one of the best places to play golf."

At the DP World Tour Championship, the top 50 players from the DP World Tour Race to Dubai will compete, including stars like Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, Shane Lowry, and Justin Rose. This year, in the context of the first DP World Tour playoffs, the stakes are even higher, and another fantastic event is expected at the Jumeirah Golf Estates.

Ewen Ferguson, who became the winner of his first DP World Tour event at the QNB Qatar Masters 2022, will also participate in this prestigious event. The outstanding Dubai golf course, luxurious arrangements, and quality infrastructure make this tournament exceptional for both players and spectators.

"We are glad that the UAE, and in particular Dubai, has become a preferred venue for major golf tournaments, attracting elite players to one of the most significant events in the sport," remarked His Excellency Saeed Hareb.

Last year, the DP World Tour Championship set a record attendance of 79,000 spectators, and the tournament's broadcasts are increasing on international platforms. Ewen Ferguson, a three-time winner of DP World Tour events, was present at today’s press conference at the Dubai Sports Council, which laid the foundation for a long-term DP World Tour champion.
