Nicolai Hojgaard won the DP World Tour Championship 2023. But did his twin brother Rasmus Hojgaard earn a PGA Tour Card for 2024? The answer is, yes. As per the Race to Dubai Rankings, Rasmus has been placed 18th, with 1937.31 points. Rory McIlroy has already won it with 5,295.87 points.

Rasmus moved down a couple of places to the 18th spot, while his brother Nicolai is placed second with 3,984.93 points. The latter moved eight spots up the ladder. On Sunday, November 19, he also produced a superb eight-under-par 64 on the final day of the DP World Tour Championship to win his first Rolex Series title.

The 22-year-old recorded nine birdies and only one bogey to finish two shots clear of his European Ryder Cup team-mates Viktor Hovland and Tommy Fleetwood. Matt Wallace was the overnight leader. “It means a lot, it’s the sweetest one. So much hard work has been put in over the past couple years,” Nicolai told Sky Sports.
