After round to forget, McIlroy set for Sunday showdown with Chacarra in Dubai

At the season-ending DP World Tour Championship in Dubai, Rory McIlroy struggled in Saturday's third round, carding an even-par 72 to fall to 5-under overall and into a four-way tie for fourth place, four shots behind leader Tyrrell Hatton (9-under). McIlroy's Race to Dubai rival Eugenio Chacarra, a 26-year-old Spaniard, shot a 68 to join McIlroy in that tie for fourth, keeping his lead of nearly 534 points in the season-long standings intact. McIlroy must overhaul Chacarra on Sunday to claim the Race to Dubai title, while also pursuing a fourth World Tour Championship victory.
