Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy set to tee up in high-class Farmers Insurance Open

Tyrrell Hatton is hunting a quickfire desert double, looking to follow up his four-shot Abu Dhabi Championship triumph by winning the Dubai Desert Classic at the Emirates Club this week.

The European Tour's Middle East Swing continues in Dubai before moving to Saudi Arabia next week. Hatton headlines the field in Dubai, where Collin Morikawa, Tommy Fleetwood, Matthew Fitzpatrick, Shane Lowry and Paul Casey are also teeing up.

Both of last week's champions are going to post again - 60-1 American Express victor Si Woo Kim has moved to Torrey Pines for the Farmers Insurance Open. Jon Rahm, who missed last week's American Express because of an injury picked up during gym work, returns to action on the course where he made his PGA Tour breakthrough.

The US Open is being staged at Torrey Pines in June, so most of the world's elite are opting to get an early spin there in the Farmers. Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka, Patrick Reed and Xander Schauffele are also in attendance.
