Ten more PGA Tour cards will be awarded Sunday in Dubai.
The leading ten players, not otherwise exempt, on the season ending's DP World Tour Race to Dubai rankings will earn PGA Tour cards for the following season.
Heading into this week's DP World Tour Championship, three players are mathematically locked into the top 10 in the standings, meaning they're heading to the PGA Tour in 2025. However, seven spots remain up for grabs.
This is the second year that DP World Tour golfers can earn status on the PGA Tour as part of a strategic alliance between the two tours.
Here's a look at the 10 players who are on the verge of earning a PGA Tour card for the 2025 season via the DP World Tour's Race to Dubai rankings.

Lawrence has five runner-up finishes in 2024, including a fourth at the Open Championship.

Norgaard won the British Masters and is well on his way to earning a Tour card, though a strong finish would lock up his spot.
Matteo Manassero

The Italian won in South Africa early in March and has been near the top of the Race to Dubai rankings ever since.

Similar to Manassero, Svensson won back in March and has maintained his spot in position to earn a card.

Olesen hasn't won since back in January, but a recent string of strong finishes has given him a chance of earning a card.

On the back of a win and two runner-up finishes, Hoshino needs another finish like that in Dubai to secure his card.
Sebastian Soderberg

Soderberg hasn't played strong since a runner-up finish in June, but four strong rounds in Dubai could change the course of his future.
Jordan Smith
