After Jon Rahm won both the DP World Tour Championship and the Race to Dubai title, adding up to a $5 million payday, he was quick to credit all the golf he didn't play in the last month.
Rahm has been busy this year, winning three times in Europe plus a team title with Ryan Palmer at the Zurich Classic. But the Spaniard hasn't played since winning the Open de Espana in early October, creating a six-week break before the European Tour season finale.
Rahm showed no signs of rust in Dubai, shooting a final-round 68 to edge Tommy Fleetwood by a shot and bookend his break with a pair of victories.
