5. Tyrrell Hatton

Race To Dubai Points: 2,242,985

Upcoming Schedule: Turkish Airlines Open, Nedbank Golf Challenge, DP World Tour Championship

How He Got Here: A strong summer of play at the Scottish Open and then in the majors catapulted Hatton towards the upper echelon of the European Tour’s rankings, and in the time since then the 25-year-old has kicked on and improved his standing even further.

A win at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship only a couple of weeks ago gave Hatton the biggest win of his career and pushed him into the top-five of the Race to Dubai standings.

Recent Form: It’s only three weeks since Hatton picked up that win at some of Scotland’s greatest courses and in the time since then he’s impressed further. A tie for ninth at the British Masters was followed up by a tie for 23rd at the WGC-HSBC Champions, meaning that Hatton could make inroads on those who’ve taken the week off in Turkey this week.
