The current world number five-ranked golfer has an outstanding record at this event, winning in 2018 and placing second in 2019.
Rahm is the man to beat on his current form and will relish the chance to secure another victory at the Hero World Challenge.

He secured back-to-back victories at the 3M Open and Rocket Mortgage Classic, placed T5 at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, T28 at the BMW Championship, 9th at the Tour Championship, MC at the World Wide Technology Championship and won the Cadence Bank Houston Open.

The 33-year-old has featured twice at the Hero World Challenge, placing second in 2018 and T10 in 2019.
The American has had a stellar year on the PGA Tour and will look to cap it off with his fourth victory of 2022.

The 20-year-old will be making his debut at the Hero World Challenge.
Tom Kim has shown that he is a superstar in the making and will fancy his chances to win at the Albany Golf Club in the Bahamas.

Homa has the game to secure this third tournament of 2022 with victory in the Bahamas this weekend.
