Leaders in turn since Thursday of the Abu Dhabi Challenge, the Englishmen Tom Lewis and Joshua Grenville-Wood were finally beaten by the experienced Ricardo Gouveia, 31. The Portuguese, third at the end of the Moving Day with four strokes behind Lewis, managed to reverse the trend thanks in particular to a magnificent eagle on par 5 of 18 at the Abu Dhabi Golf Club, famous for having hosted between 2006 and 2021 one of the most important tournaments of the season on the DP World Tour (Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship).
Ricardo Gouveia, resultsGouveia, author of a final 66 (-6), won his sixth victory in the Emirates on the Challenge Tour. The first since the Made in Esbjerg Challenge in Denmark on August 14, 2021. At -19 (269), he leaves Lewis and Grenville-Wood two lengths behind him, but also South African Wilco Nienaber and Spaniard Ivan Cantero Gutierrez.

The pupil of Olivier Léglise, 70 (-2) in this last lap, grabbed 15th final place here at -10 (278) with Julien Sale, also owner of a 70. Best tricolor on Saturday evening (7th at - 10), Tom Vaillant was satisfied with a 73 (+1). He fell to 21st position at -9 (279).
