Dubai Invitational : Fleetwood Rides A Strong Finish As Rory Falters At The Finish

By IANS News January 15, 2024 • 16:50 PM View: 286

South African Thriston Lawrence: A two-shot swing right at the end of the tournament on the 72nd hole saw Tommy Fleetwood edge aside World No. 2 Rory McIlroy to win the inaugural Dubai Invitational by one shot.

Standing at the eighteenth together, McIlroy at 19-under was one shot ahead of Fleetwood at 18-under.

Things changed quickly as McIlroy hit his drive into the water, took a penalty and came out with a bogey. Fleetwood meanwhile holed a superb 16-footer for birdie to make a two-shot swing in his favour and pick his third win in the Middle East. He has won twice in the past in Abu Dhabi.
