Willett has endured a poor run of form since his disappointing Ryder Cup debut at Hazeltine, although he can take confidence from a positive weekend performance at last weeks Nedbank Golf Challenge. Danny Willett has had a poor run since the Ryder Cup The Masters champion shot 67 and 69 over the final two days in South Africa to remain within striking distance of Race to Dubai leader Henrik Stenson heading into the season-ending event at the Jumeirah Golf Estates. The Swede has a commanding lead of almost 300,000 points over Willett, although the Sheffield star can be crowned European No 1 for the first time with a top-four finish in Dubai. The Race is on ... All the permutations ahead of the Race to Dubai finale Willett will snatch the overall title with a win, while a top-four finish for Willett would also be good enough if Stenson is outside the top 30 and Alex Noren does not win.Its been a very turbulent year and weve had the ultimate of highs and a few real lows the last few months, said Willett, who was denied the Race to Dubai title last year when Rory McIlroy won the season finale. Weve got four rounds of golf left in whats been a pretty long season.

Im 300,000 points behind Henrik, but if we can control this week and win, then nobody can take it way from us. Its a nice situation to be in, hoping for other people to finish outside of the top five, top 10. It could be an exciting week.Ive got a little bit more confidence after the last couple of rounds last week.

Willett enjoyed an improved final two rounds in Sun City But if we can get it in play off the tee then it definitely suits good mid-iron play which is one of our strengths, and good putting. Im looking forward to what could be a very nice end to whats been a very up year I guess.If we can somehow topple Henrik, that would be fantastic. If we dont, so be it. I think potentially at the end of the season it may be easier to be sat here chasing someone down this week than potentially trying to hold onto a lead.
