Jon Rahm wins Abu Dhabi Championship with final-round 67

Jon Rahm posted a final-round 67 to claim a two-shot win over England's Tyrrell Hatton at the Abu Dhabi Championship on the DP World Tour. The Spanish golfer, playing his first event since the birth of his fourth child, recorded six birdies and only one bogey on Sunday, finishing two strokes ahead of Hatton and two strokes ahead of Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy, who moved into third place.

Rahm told Sky Sports, "It means a lot. It's been quite a while to play well in the DP World Tour. Except a shot on 17, as far as I'm concerned, I played a pretty flawless back nine. It was really solid, never in danger of making a bogey except that one hole. After everything that has gone on, some poor play and some battles mentally with a lot of noise, to come back out after a bit of a break and a new addition to the family, it's pretty special."

McIlroy's third-place finish kept him second in the Race to Dubai standings ahead of next week's season finale, putting him within striking distance of a record-equalling eighth season title. Rahm's victory also kept him in contention for a possible back-to-back win in Dubai.
