        Rory Mcllroy was co-leading with Patrick Reed in Dubai. Rory Mcllroy was tied with rival Patrick Reed for the lead after the delayed conclusion to round one of the Dubai Desert Classic, though the Northern Irishman was not entirely satisfied with his performance. The build-up to the tournament has been dominated by a spat between world number one Mcllroy and LIV Golf defector Reed. American Reed labelled Mcllroy an "immature little child" for blanking him at the practice range and was also alleged to have thrown a tee at Mcllroy. Mcllroy said Reed's lawyer served him with court papers on Christmas Eve, although Reed has said he was not behind the subpoena, with the case concerned being one brought by American attorney Larry Klayman relating to divisions between LIV Golf and PGA Tour. A strong start from both players on a rain-delayed day one raised the possibility of an intriguing pairing over the weekend. And the chances of that happening were increased with...

      Jon Rahm Jon Rahm's phenomenal front nine earned him a share of the lead with Davis Thompson after the third round of The American Express in California on Saturday. World number four Rahm shot 30 in his first nine holes on the Stadium Course at La Quinta Country Club, including four birdies and an eagle on the fifth to claim the lead by three strokes from Thompson, who had gone into the third day ahead by two.

Rahm and Thompson are joint top on 23-under overall, four strokes ahead of J.T Poston and Christiaan Bezuidenhout. Bezuidenhout enjoyed a scintillating 10...

  After two rounds at The American Express it is Davis Thompson and Joh Rahm who have broken away from the field, both at least three strokes clear of third place. Thompson was the first-round leader after riding back-to-back eagles to a 10-under 62- the best score of his PGA Tour career-and he added three more eagles in his second round to follow it up with a 64 and head into the weekend at 18 under. His five eagles ties the PGA Tour record for the most through 36 holes at any event. He is two strokes clear of Rahm at 16 under after the world number four went bogey-free for his second 64 in a row. Both players began their week on the La Quinta Country Club course, and both played the PGA West's Nicklaus Tournament course on Friday. They will play Saturday's round on the PGA West Stadium Course, which is also where Sunday's final round will be contested. There are some big names in the chasing pack, with South Korean rising star Tom Kim and former world number one Jason Day...
