Fifteen players claimed full playing rights on the 2027 DP World Tour after the HotelPlanner Tour's Grand Final at Club de Golf Alcanada in Mallorca, Spain, where double points were on offer for the season's final event.

Who won the Grand Final and the season title?

France's Julien Sale shot a final-round 65, built on his putting in tricky conditions, to win the Grand Final by four strokes and complete his promotion to the DP World Tour. He finished second for the season behind Denmark's Hamish Brown, who won the Road to Mallorca title after a nervy wait on the final green for a birdie putt from MJ Daffue.

Brown's season included one win and three runner-up finishes. Daffue's third-place finish in Spain held him at fifth for the season and secured his own card.

Who else earned a 2027 card?

The Netherlands' Lars Van Der Vight finished third for the season after a tie for fifth in Spain, and Sweden's Christofer Blomstrand took fourth after a tie for eighth. Spain's Pablo Ereno, returning pro Tapio Pulkkanen and Sweden's Adam Wallin filled sixth through eighth, with Ireland's Liam Nolan and England's John Gough rounding out the top 10.

Denmark's Sebastian Friedrichsen and England's Will Enefer shared 22nd at the Grand Final for the 11th and 12th cards. Warren, the week's biggest mover, took 13th. England's Andrew Wilson and France's Maxence Giboudot claimed the final two cards.

Who narrowly missed out?

England's Matthew Southgate entered the week 15th but finished the Grand Final at eight-under in a tie for 26th, ending the season just under 16 points short of a card. Players who finish 16th through 20th, a group that includes Southgate, earn DP World Tour category 19 status for 2027 instead.
