Both Rasmus and Nicolai Hojgaard are in the field alongside Dubai-based Adrian Meronk who will be playing in both the Dubai Invitational and Dubai Desert Classic before jetting off to the US to take up his PGA Card, thanks to his exceptional performance on the 2023 DP World Tour, finishing fourth in the Race to Dubai and earning the top PGA Tour Card of those not already eligible.
