Tyrrell Hatton was in superb form to win the Dubai Desert Classic and secure his place in the Ryder Cup rankings.

Sunday was a good day for Luke Donald, with Tyrrell Hatton and Sepp Straka winning on the European and PGA Tours respectively, while Rory McIlroy also found form

Tyrrell Hatton is a winner again on the DP World Tour. The Englishman fired a final-round 69 at Emirates Golf Club to reach 15 under at the 2025 Dubai Desert Classic and eek past Daniel Hillier for a one-stroke victory.

He does not give a flying fig what anyone thinks of him, he has balls and is a massive asset for our Ryder Cup team.” So Rory McIlroy provided the perfect summation of Tyrrell Hatton as the Englishman with the hot head put on an ice-cool display to win the Dubai Desert Classic and move back into the world’s top 10.

Holding off New Zealand's Daniel Hillier by one and Englishman Laurie Canter by two, Hatton, one of Europe’s Ryder Cup stars, despite his move to Jon Rahm’s Legion XVIII with LIV Golf, overcame a one-stroke deficit heading into round four.

Rory McIlroy knows what Tyrrell Hatton can do, and the Englishman's Dubai win was further evidence he'll be an "asset" in the Ryder Cup
