It would be one of my finest achievements,’said Stenson who also won the DP World Tour Championship in 2014. It was pretty sweet to be here as Europe’s No.1 in 2013 and I don’t think it would be any less sweet this year after the season that I’ve had, winning The Open Championship and some other fine results. I’m certainly keen and I’m going to give it my best shot.<\/p>\n
Leading the chasing pack is Englishman Danny Willett, who won the Masters Tournament earlier this season but has endured a tough couple of months leading into this week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s tournament.

Henrik Stenson is at the head of a group of four players who can finish this week’s DP World Tour Championship as the Race to Dubai winner and it’s a situation he’s all too familiar with.
