The Race to Dubai officially begins this Thursday with the BMW Masters in Shanghai. Kicking off a four-tournament process that will lead straight to the crowning of this year’s European Tour number one player.
Excitement surrounding this Final Series is building great momentum. With the BMW Masters promising to be a great start to the run worth an estimated $30 million USD.
Henrik Stenson,
Rory McIlroy and
Luke Donald will join returning champion,
Peter Hanson as the best European Tour players tee off at the Lake Malaren Golf Club on Thursday.
Stenson will be hoping a wrist injury doesn’t sideline him before he gets the chance to demonstrate the amazing level of play that earned him the FedEx Cup title last month. While his fellow Swede, Hanson will be looking for a repeat of last year’s performance.
Telling the europeantour.com, “The victory last year was special. To go up against Rory when he was World Number One and playing the best golf in the world at that time was something you don’t get the chance to do that often, and to be able to sneak ahead of him to take the title was awesome.”
