DP World Tour - DP World Tour Championship
Matt Fitzpatrick has etched his name into the history books, becoming only the third player to win the DP World Tour Championship three times, following a dramatic play-off victory over fellow Ryder Cup teammate, Rory McIlroy. Having set the clubhouse target, Fitzpatrick was matched by McIlroy, leading to a one-hole decider. Fitzpatrick secured his 10th DP World Tour title and his first in over two years with a solid par on the par-five 18th to beat the defending champion.
This is the 11th win by an English player on the 2025 Race to Dubai and the 388th overall win by an Englishman on the DP World Tour. It also makes it back-to-back Rolex Series wins for England, following Aaron Rai's recent win in Abu Dhabi.
The victory comes two years and 39 days after his last win, the 2023 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, and stands as a fitting end to his 195th career start on the Tour.

PGA Tour - Butterfield Bermuda Championship
Adam Schenk secured his long-awaited maiden PGA TOUR victory at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship on Sunday, prevailing in brutal, gusting winds at Port Royal Golf Course. In his 243rd start, the American held on with an even-par 71 to win by a single stroke, a win that came just as he faced the stress of potentially losing his TOUR status.
Schenk's final round was a battle against gusts over 30 mph. The victory was clinched with a nervy, light-touch par putt on the 18th, ensuring he held off fellow American Chandler Phillips, who finished runner-up and dramatically improved his FedEx Cup standing. The win grants Schenk a crucial two-year exemption, along with spots in major events like THE PLAYERS Championship and next year's 20 million Signature events.

Thailand's Ekpharit Wu secured his first Asian Tour title at the US$400,000 Taiwan Glass Taifong Open, overcoming local favourite Hung Chien-yao in a dramatic finish.
