Eventually they will be four Spanish golfers who would object to Challenge to Nedbankwithin Gary Player Country Club of Sun City (South Africa)after making public the list of registered participants of DP World Tour (European Tour). Oh Jorge Campillorunner-up a few days ago in Qatar, Pablo Larrazábal, Adrián Otaegui and Nacho Elvira.
The latter is played by entering the top 50 of the ranking and thus played the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai (the Grand Final), November 16-19. Others aspire to one of the ten PGA Tour cards handed out at the end of the season, or a place in the top 30 of the Race to Dubai which gives direct access to the 2024 British Open in Royal Troon (Scotland).
The Nedbank Golf Challenge, the penultimate tournament of the European Tour season, is reserved for the 60 best players of Racing in Dubai. The ‘cut’ was closed at 74th place, with South African Hennie Du Plessis. This means that the Spanish Adri Arnaus, Santi Tarrio and Alex del Reyranked higher than 80th place in the Breed, are left out of the tournament and, therefore, can now end their season.
The 13 golfers who are eligible to play in South Africa and will not be in the Gary Player CC are Jon RahmRory McIlroy, Min Woo Lee, Viktor Hovland, Matt Fitzpatrick, Tyrrell Hatton, Tom Kim, Lucas Herbert, Sepp Straka, Shane Lowry, Ludvig Aberg, Adam Scott and Matti Schmid.
Despite the absences, Nedbank is a great tournament that distributes a prize of 6 million dollars and a purse of 7,000 Race to Dubai points. In addition to the best golfers on the European Tour, other than those already mentioned, there will be American Ryders. Justin Thomas and Max Homathe Italian Francesco Molinari and English Justin Rosethey all have a ‘wild card’.
