Spain's Jon Rahm secured a victory in Abu Dhabi on Sunday, November 8, 2026, edging out England's Tyrrell Hatton and Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy in a post-LIV Golf tournament.

The win marks Rahm's first title since the LIV Golf series reshaped the professional golf landscape. The event took place in Abu Dhabi, with Rahm finishing ahead of a strong field that included major champions Hatton and McIlroy.

A file photo from the 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush shows Rahm in action during that major earlier in the year.
