The DP World Tour turns its attentions to the play-offs after the conclusion of the regular season.
Last weekend’s Genesis Championship marked the final event of the European-based circuit’s ‘Back 9’.
It gave golfers one final chance to secure their playing rights for the 2026 campaign or qualify for the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship.
Notable players who lost their Tour cards include Dylan Fritelli, Antoine Rozner, Bernd Wiesberger, Adrian Oaegui and Yannik Paul.
Former Masters champion Adam Scott, who primarily plays his golf on the PGA Tour, kept his card but was among those who finished outside of the top 70 in the Race to Dubai standings.

Only the top 70 in the season-long points race are eligible to tee it up at next week’s Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship.
From there, only the top 50 will advance to the DP World Tour Championship later in the month.
Masters champion Rory McIlroy currently leads the way and is bidding for his seventh order of merit crown.
Only England’s Marco Penge has a realistic chance of leapfrogging the Northern Irishman.
GolfMagic has listed the top 70 players who are eligible to play at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship below.

The $9m tournament takes place over 6-9 November.
Note:
Shane Lowry, Sepp Straka and Ludvig Aberg finished outside of the top 70 but are eligible to compete in the play-offs after qualifying for the 2025 European Ryder Cup team.
Tommy Fleetwood was in this position but qualified automatically after winning the India Championship.
