Frustration for Rory as Cabrera-Bello wins

When Rory McIlroy threw his arms into the air at the last hole it was more in frustration than delight despite holing a birdie putt at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic.

McIlroy’s final day 71 for a 14-under par tally left him in joint fifth place, four strokes behind Spain’s Rafael Cabrera-Bello who recorded a 68 to beat Lee Westwood and Stephen Gallacher (69) by a stroke with an 18-under par tally.

McIlroy went straight to Dubai Airport for a short 45-minute flight to Doha, where he’s joining girlfriend Caroline Wozinacki who is contesting the Qatar Open.
