The 2025 Hero Dubai Desert Classic title was once again decided in dramatic fashion at the Emirates Golf Club’s famed Majlis course on Sunday.
It was a thrilling conclusion to four absorbing days of top-tier golf, with England’s Tyrrell Hatton holding his nerve to fend off a defiant New Zealander, Daniel Hillier, by just one shot. However, with four-time champion Rory McIlroy playing electrifying golf on the final day, it was always going to be a tough call as to who would claim victory.
