LONDON — Turkish Airlines Open champion Victor Dubuisson is less than pleased that he will be left twiddling his thumbs when the European Tour's money-spinning Final Series continues in China on Thursday.
The Frenchman sobbed like a child on Sunday after winning in Antalya for the second time in three years but the tears quickly turned into a frustrated sigh when he found out he was ineligible for this week's WGC-HSBC Champions event in Shanghai.
Dubuisson made his Ryder Cup debut last year and was riding high at number 17 in the rankings. However, a slump in form this season sent him tumbling to 69th before his victory in Turkey.
