The PGA Tour has ended for this calendar year (save Tiger's tournament in early December) but we still have a little European Tour business to take care of.

What: DP World Tour Championship
Where: Dubai, UAE
When: Nov. 13-16
How to watch: Golf Channel (1-8 a.m. on Thursday and Friday, 12:30-8 a.m. on Saturday and 2:30-7:30 a.m. on Sunday)

Participants and odds

Rory McIlroy: 5-1
HenriK Stenson: 7-1
Justin Rose: 12-1
Ian Poulter: 18-1
Sergio Garcia: 18-1
Brooks Koepka: 22-1
Lee Westwood: 22-1
Victor Dubuisson: 22-1
Jamie Donaldson: 22-1
Graeme McDowell: 28-1
Martin Kaymer: 28-1 

Field strength: B

A solid field for late November. No Tiger Woods but McIlroy is back and all the top Europeans are lined up for what should be a terrific event.

Story to watch: Brooks Koepka burst onto the scene last week with a win at the Turkish Airlines Open and he's now one of the favorites in Dubai. Unfortunately he recently got food poisoning (possibly from a Burger King) and might not be at full strength.

Past winners

2013: Henrik Stenson
2012: Rory McIlroy
2011: Alvaro Quiros
2010: Robert Karlsson
2009: Lee Westwood 

Nobody stands out as an outlier. The champions of this event, much like the PGA Tour's Tour Championship, is usually an already-established star.

Expert picks 

PlayerGradeAnalysis
Winner Who else? Rory McIlroy has a chance to finish off possibly the best season by a European golfer ever in style in Dubai. I think he will. Odds: 4-1
Top 10 I'm really going out on a limb with these picks, aren't I? Henrik Stenson has had a quietly good fall season in Europe as he finished second at the World Match Play Championship and third at the Turkish Airlines Open. I'd be shocked to see him play badly. Odds: 7-1
Sleeper Thorbjorn Olesen won the Perth International and finished T6 at the HSBC Champions. He's a bit of a wild horse (so to speak) but he certainly has the talent to win this thing. Finished top 25 here each of the last three years. Odds: 66-1
