Which 10 DP World Tour players earned PGA Tour cards? Results in full
Which 10 DP World Tour players earned PGA Tour cards for the 2024/2025 season? Check out the list of players who have earned their new playing rights.
Depending on your point of view, there is a controversial twist when the DP World Tour season draws to a close.
We are, of course, referring to the fact that as many as 10 golfers will earn PGA Tour cards for the following campaign.
The '10 cards' initiative was established last season thanks to the 'strategic alliance' between the North American circuit and Wentworth HQ.
Critics argue this makes zero sense from a commercial perspective as the European-based circuit is willingly giving away talent.
Others, such as former DP World Tour chief executive Keith Pelley, have claimed the initiative merely formalised a pathway that always existed.
Whatever your thoughts, it's clear that some Tour pros in contention for a golden ticket will start to feel the pressure over the next few weeks.
The 2024 DP World Tour season concluded on Sunday 17 November at the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai.
Rory McIlroy won the DP World Tour Championship for a third time and the season-long Race to Dubai for a sixth time, matching the feat of late great Seve Ballesteros.
But the other battle happening in Dubai was the distribution of 10 PGA Tour cards for uneligible players via the DP World Tour Rankings.
Rasmus Hojgaard may have come up two shots shy of McIlroy but he topped the pile in the race for PGA Tour cards.
The Dane was joined by Thriston Lawrence and Paul Waring in the top three.
Other PGA Tour cards went to Jesper Svensson, Niklas Norgaard, Matteo Manassero, Thorbjorn Olesen, Antoine Rozner, Rikuya Hoshino and Tom McKibbin, the latter who has been mentored by McIlroy for much of his career.
When McIlroy off 18 he walked straight over to give McKibbin a hug to congratulate him on his first PGA Tour card.
