Defending champion DeChambeau to return for Desert Classic along with Europe’s finest

America’s Bryson DeChambeau will lead a world-class field at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic from 23-26 January. The defending champion will be joined by Matt Fitzpatrick, Ian Poulter, Henrik Stenson, Lee Westwood, Rafa Cabrera Bello and Matt Wallace.

The 2020 edition is set to be an occasion to remember with all-new Hospitality Terrace packages offering a unique perspective on play.

Bryson DeChambeau will be hard-pressed to defend his Omega Dubai Desert Classic title when he returns to the iconic Majlis Course at Emirates Golf Club to take on a world-class field of proven European Tour winners from 23-26 January 2020.

The oldest tournament in the Middle East – and the longest-running on the circuit outside of Europe – will return for the 31st edition next year, as will past European Ryder Cup players Matthew Fitzpatrick, Ian Poulter, Henrik Stenson, Lee Westwood and Rafa Cabrera Bello, who also won the event in 2012.

They will be joined by four-time European Tour winner Matt Wallace, who finished runner-up to America’s DeChambeau eight months ago.
