The Omega Dubai Desert Classic first came to the UAE in 1989. Since then, the honours board has included seven different Major champions including Seve Ballesteros, Ernie Els, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.
Now organised by Golf in Dubai, the tournament – nicknamed the “Major of the Middle East” – has welcomed more than 20 winners from 12 nations.
Last year, the 27th edition was won by England’s Danny Willett, who went on to win his first Masters title two months later. The 2016 Dubai Desert Classic field included 89 European Tour winners, eight major champions, 20 Ryder Cup stars and two of the globe’s top six golfers. Not too shabby, eh?
