ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates – Englishman Tyrrell Hatton shot a sparkling 6-under-par 66 in the final round on Sunday to win the season-opening Abu Dhabi Championship by four strokes after overnight leader Rory McIlroy faded with an uninspired even-par 72 to drop into third.

Hatton finished at 18 under par and secured a sixth European Tour title, a victory that will go a long way towards securing a second Ryder Cup appearance in September.
