Jon Rahm has moved into the lead at the Abu Dhabi golf championship, edging ahead of Tyrrell Hatton and Rory McIlroy on the leaderboard. The Spanish golfer, who has not won an individual tournament outside of the LIV Golf circuit since his 2023 Masters victory, is looking to end that drought this week in the United Arab Emirates.

Rahm's position at the top sets up a compelling final round showdown with fellow major champions Hatton and McIlroy. The tournament represents one of the key events on the international golf calendar, attracting a strong field to the Middle East swing.
