Rasmus, the highest ranked of the two Højgaard brothers in the world hierarchy, has withdrawn from the Hero Cup which begins this Friday in Abu Dhabi. It was his twin brother, Nicolaï, who was summoned at short notice to replace him.
Last minute package in the Continental Europe selection team, the Dane Rasmus Højgaardtriple winner on the DP World Tour, gives way to his twin brother, winner of two tournaments.
Nicolai Højgaard therefore joins the players already present in the Emirates and in particular the two French, Victor Perez et Antoine Rozner.
