Dubai Desert Classic Tee Times 2026: Rounds One And Two

A white Hero Dubai Desert Classic flag.

It's a huge week on the DP World Tour as the Dubai Desert Classic takes place once again at Emirates Golf Club.

The historic event has been on the European Tour calendar since 1989, and this week's field features some of the sport's biggest names like four-time champion Rory McIlroy and World No.3 Tommy Fleetwood.

The two Ryder Cuppers are paired together for the first two rounds over the Majlis Course alongside fellow European star Tyrrell Hatton, who is the defending champion this week after winning his eighth DP World Tour title here last year.

The marquee trio go off at 8.05am local time from the 10th tee on Thursday and 12.25pm from the 1st on Friday.

Dubai is in Gulf Standard Time, which is four hours ahead of GMT and nine hours ahead of ET, meaning some early mornings for US fans tuning in.
