Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy pose with their trophies after the end of the DP World Tour Championship. Rahm claimed the tournament title while McIlroy won the season-long points race.

Andrew Redington

To say Jon Rahm loves playing the DP World Tour Championship on the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates would be the understatement of understatements. The 28-year-old Spaniard had two wins and a T-4 showing in his three previous starts in the Old World circuit’s season finale, posting a scoring average of 67.66.

It was more of the same this week, as Rahm followed up an opening-round 70 with a 66-65-67 finish to take the tournament title for a third time, outpacing Tyrrell Hatton and Alex Noren by two shots. In the process, he lowered that career scoring average to 67.5.

It was Rahm’s ninth career DP World Tour victory and fifth win in the tour’s elevated Rolex Series events. With the triumph, Rahm claimed the $3 million first-place prize money payout (€2,891,271) from the overall purse of $10 million. He also saw his career earnings on the DP World Tour rise to €21,834,859.52, the 19th player in tour history to break the €20 million mark.

There was another winner on Sunday as well as Rory McIlroy, while finishing four strokes back of Rahm in solo fourth place, earned the DP World Tour’s Harry Vardon Trophy as the season-long points title winner . It’s the third time McIlroy has won the honor, but the first in a season in which he also won the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup title.

Rory McIlroy tops all-time European Tour money list after Carnoustie performance

Joint-second place in The Open takes McIlroy past Lee Westwood

Tuesday 24 July 2018 12:04, UK

Rory McIlroy during the final round of The Open at Carnoustie

Rory McIlroy may have missed out on his fifth major victory in The 147th Open on Sunday, but his performance at Carnoustie did help him achieve one notable career landmark.

The 29-year-old Northern Irishman finished in a four-way tie for second place behind Francesco Molinari, but the €597,050 prize money he picked up took him to the top of the all-time career money list on the European Tour.

McIlroy has now earned a total of €35,110,780 on the European Tour, moving ahead of Lee Westwood, who has amassed €34,777,910.

Westwood could only finish in a tie for 61st at The Open, which secured him a prize of €21,772.

during the third round of the 147th Open Championship at Carnoustie Golf Club on July 21, 2018 in Carnoustie, Scotland.

McIlroy, who is now seventh in the world rankings, has won 13 times on the European Tour and triumphed in the Race to Dubai in 2012, 2014 and 2015.

Englishman Westwood, 45, has won 23 times on the European Tour during his career and has 137 top-10 finishes to his name - McIlroy has 82. He first topped the career money list in 2011 when he reached the €25m mark to overtake Ernie Els.

Lee Westwood during the third round of the 147th Open Championship at Carnoustie Golf Club on July 21, 2018 in Carnoustie, Scotland.

McIlroy first joined the European Tour as a professional in 2007 when he earned €277,255 from eight starts, and he increased his prize money to €696,335 the following year when he featured in 28 events.

He claimed his first professional victory when he won the Dubai Desert Classic in 2009 which helped lift his prize money to €3,610,020.

McIlroy failed to win in Europe in 2010, although he did triumph in the Quail Hollow Championship on the PGA Tour, but he claimed his first major victory the following year when he won the US Open at Congressional which took him past the €4m mark on the European Tour as he amassed €4,002,168.

during the final round of the 111th U.S. Open at Congressional Country Club on June 19, 2011 in Bethesda, Maryland.

Victories in the PGA Championship and DP World Tour Championship in 2012 elevated his earnings to €5,519,118, but a loss of form meant he drew a blank in 2013 as he made just €862,177.

He quickly put 2013 behind him, though, as he reached new heights in 2014 with two major successes - in The Open at Royal Liverpool and PGA Championship at Valhalla - as well as valuable wins in the BMW PGA Championship and WGC-Bridgestone Invitational.

during day four of the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth on May 25, 2014 in Virginia Water, England.

That gave McIlroy his best year to date with a massive €5,883,304 in prize money on the European Tour as he won the Race to Dubai for a second time, and victories in the Omega Desert Classic, WGC-Cadillac Match Play and DP World Tour Championship saw him retain that title in 2015 with €4,540,007 earned.

McIlroy has only won the 2016 Irish Open on the European Tour since then, but has still managed to pick up €2,971,984 and €1,832,086 in the last two years and he has already trousered €2,494,458 this season following his efforts at Carnoustie.

Shane Lowry’s net worth

What Is Shane Lowry ’s Net Worth?

Estimates of Shane Lowry’s net worth vary tremendously, some places put the figure as low as $8m and as high as $20m.

Lowry is 26th on the European Tour’s career earnings list, with €16,276,126.94.

He won the Irish Open in 2009 when still an amateur, the third amateur to win on the European Tour.

The Irishman turned pro the week after this triumph. He then missed the cut in the next three Tour events.

Lowry had to wait until October 2012 for his first win on Tour as a pro. This was at the Portugal Masters. His winner’s prize was €375,000.

Even more lucrative victories were to come. Winning the 2015 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational title earned him $1,570,000.

Lowry is clearly a fan of horse racing and has his own horse called Theatre of War. In a piece for Paddy Power he said;

"I’m really excited my horse Theatre of War is running for the first time at Cheltenham this week – but unfortunately I won’t be there to see it.

"After winning The Open last year I wanted to do something for my friends back home, so me and a few of the lads decided to buy a racehorse together.

"It’s run a few times so far, and having started well it then fell a few times. But he rediscovered his form at the end of last year, and had a great run at Leopardstown over Christmas which qualified him for Cheltenham."

Speaking of Paddy Power, Lowry has a partnership with the company. He has been a golf ambassador for them since April 2019.

Lowry also does charity work as an ambassador for Temple Street Children's Hospital. His wife, Wendy, had worked there as a nurse.

He also sponsors the Offaly Gaelic Athletic Association, having agreed a five-year sponsorship arrangement in 2021. His father, Brendan, had played Gaelic football for the Offaly side which won the 1982 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final. Two of Shane’s uncles had also been in the team.
