Race to Dubai - Past Champions

Rory McIlroy became the fourth winner of the Race to Dubai - after Luke Donald (2011) Martin Kaymer (2010) and Lee Westwood (2009) - when he emulated the historic feat of Donald the previous year by becoming the Number One player on both The European Tour and the US PGA Tour.

World Number One McIlroy won twice on The 2012 European Tour International Schedule – in the US PGA Championship and the season-ending DP World Tour Championship, Dubai – in addition to three times on the US PGA Tour. He was runner-up on another three occasions and finished in the top five a further four times. His earnings of €5,519,118 set a new European Tour record.
