A juicy battle is brewing between Patrick Reed and Rory McIlroy on the DP World Tour

Patrick Reed, a former Masters champion who left LIV Golf after 2025, currently leads the DP World Tour's Race to Dubai standings after winning the Dubai Desert Classic and the Qatar Masters earlier this year. Reed is competing at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, England, where he drew large crowds during Wednesday's pro-am, and he also finished T-2 at last week's Irish Open. His strong DP World Tour performances have secured him a PGA Tour card for 2027 via the tour's top 10 points earners.
