The next wave of PGA Tour players officially earned their cards on Sunday.
The leading ten players, not otherwise exempt, on the season-ending DP World Tour Race to Dubai rankings earned PGA Tour cards for 2025. Coming into the DP World Tour Championship at Jumeirah Golf Estates, only three players had solidified themselves in the top 10, meaning seven spots were up for grabs.
However, only one player on the outside played his way into the top 10, and now he’s a PGA Tour member for 2025.
Last year, Robert MacIntyre and Matthieu Pavon earned their PGA Tour cards via the Race to Dubai, and then they won on the PGA Tour this season. Pavon captured the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines while MacIntyre claimed the RBC Canadian Open and then the Genesis Scottish Open.

Lawrence was, mathematically, the only other player beside McIlroy who could’ve won the Race to Dubai on Sunday, but his spot in the top 10 was locked up regardless of his finish.
