2016
Winner: Rickie Fowler
Winning score: -16 (70-68-65-69)
Runner-up: Thomas Pieters (-15).
Two magical shots summed up Fowler’s Sunday – a holed bunker shot for eagle on the eighth hole after a double on the seventh, and when his rivals were turning on the heat, a chipped-in birdie on the 17th as he won in only his second start.
2015
Winner: Gary Stal
Winning score: -19 (68-69-67-65)
Runner-up: Rory McIlroy (-18).
The edition will forever be known as the one Martin Kaymer lost. The German was leading by 10 shots after five holes on Sunday before a dramatic collapse saw him finish third.
2014
Winner: Pablo Larrazabal
Winning score: -14 (69-70-68-67)
Runner-up: Rory McIlroy and Phil Mickelson (-13).
For the third successive year, the favourites were upstaged as Larrazabal drained a five-footer birdie putt on the final hole to triumph.
2013
Winner: Jamie Donaldson
Winning score: -14 (67-70-69-68)
Runner-up: Justin Rose and Thorbjorn Olesen (-13).
McIlroy and Tiger Woods both missed the cut (Woods after a penalty). Donaldson took full advantage, winning despite a bogey on the last hole.
2012
Winner: Robert Rock
Winning score: -13 (69-70-66-70)
Runner-up: Rory McIlroy (-12).
Woods made his debut in Abu Dhabi and almost won but for a poor final round. It was England’s Rock who chalked a famous win one ahead of McIlroy, with Woods finishing tied third.
2011
Winner: Martin Kaymer
Winning score: -24 (67-65-66-66)
Runner-up: Rory McIlroy (-16).
Germany’s Kaymer recorded his most dominating Abu Dhabi win. His lowest round during the tournament was a 67 and he beat McIlroy by eight shots.
2010
Winner: Martin Kaymer
Winning score: -21 (67-67-67-66)
Runner-up: Ian Poulter (-20).
Poulter made a spirited charge to prevent Kaymer from winning the Falcon Trophy a second time, but did not make a single birdie in his last seven holes.
2009
Winner: Paul Casey
Winning score: -21 (69-65-63-70)
Runner-up: Martin Kaymer and Louis Oosthuizen (-20).
The Englishman survived a strong finish from Kaymer (67) and Oosthuizen (64). Casey had led by six shots making the turn on the final day.
2008
Winner: Martin Kaymer
Winning score: -15 (66-65-68-74)
Runner-up: Henrik Stenson and Lee Westwood (-11).
A year after finishing as Rookie of the Year, Kaymer won his first European Tour title. Not even a shaky final round 74 could stop him.
2007
Winner: Paul Casey
Winning score: -17 (71-68-67-65)
Runner-up: Peter Hanson and Miguel Angel Jimenez (-16).
Paul Casey closed with a superb round of seven-under par 65 and stole the limelight from Hanson and Jimenez. Both shot 68, but were upstaged by Casey.
2006
Winner: Chris DiMarco
Winning score: -20 (71-67-63-67)
Runner-up: Henrik Stenson (-19).
Having lost the 2005 Masters in a play-off to Woods, DiMarco was a big name. The American denied Stenson, who shot a course-record 62 on Saturday
