Good services offered by four of the six Spanish participants in the dubai world which is played on World Course of the complex Jumeirah Estates in the Emirate and the tournament that closes the official season of DP World Tour (formerly European Tour) with all swords held high as far as victory in this event is concerned at ang Race to Dubai (formerly Order of Merit) especially. One of them, Catalan Adri Arnaus, was tied for 3rd, three back of the lead after a final hurray at the 18th hole, where he took two head shots with his eagle-3.
Right now the battle to be the European number of the year will be won by the English Matt Fitzpatrickchampion of the US Open, author of 67 for 132 overall, -12, co-leader of the tournament with his countryman Tyrrell Hatton, and if he finishes like this he will lead the points list of the ‘Race ‘ On Sunday .
Arnaus played a round to finish the day higher, with three birdies in the first 7 holes, but his game cooled down after that, he had clear birdie options not wanting to finish the ball in the pot, and he made a painful bogey on the first par 5 of the second round that put him at -7. However, the man from Moià managed it and somehow with a big second shot on the 18th about 7 meters from the flag, left a good option for eagle, which this time he did not miss, throwing the his fist in the air and smile. with his caddy : 68 shots worked well, for 135 (-9), the same number as the Swedish Alex Noren, and all the options intact.
the extremeño Jorge Campillowith the second best card of the day (he lost 64 to the Chinese Wu), 65 shots (8 birdies and a bogey and a good option for eagle on 18), is tied for 5th with the Basque Jon Rahm, author of a 66, with seven birdies and one bogey and not taking advantage of the two par 5s on the second part of the course. Both had 136 punches four from the head. They could have been more but on 18 Fitpatrick and Hatton were involved in their starts and both made par.
Barrika, world number 5 and double winner of this tournament, had an embarrassing comeback, as he missed the short putt for birdie on the 14th, however, he got it back on the 15th but on the 18th he did not got the fairway and three on the green He put the ball eight meters from the flag. It’s a shame because Jon’s claws will do more damage to those concerned.
Rory McIlroycurrent leader of the ‘Race’, saved the tools with an amazing round finish: birdie-birdie-eagle (he left the ball a meter from the hole on 18, par 5), for 68 shots and 139 (-5) , the same total as Basque Adrián Otaegui, who shot for eagle in the 18th minute and with 68 shots he shares 11th place with the Northern Irishman, world number 1, seven shots behind his head.
