The 2023 Hero Cup final leaderboard is headed by winners Continental Europe, who earned the team win in the inaugural edition of this event at Abu Dhabi Golf Club in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

The 10-player Continental Europe team, headed by playing captain Francesco Molinari, won the event over the Tommy Fleetwood-led Great Britain and Ireland team by a 14.5-10.5 margin.

In the final day, there were 10 singles matches played, with the Continentals winning six of the matches to get over the 13 points required to win.

Though Continental Europe won, there is no purse for the winning side or losing side.

Hero Cup recap notes

This event was created as a way of giving an opportunity to European-born players to experience a team competition like the Ryder Cup and build the next generation of European players.

Luke Donald, who is the current 2023 European Ryder Cup captain, helped put together these teams in conjunction with the DP World Tour.

The 2023 European Tour schedule continues next week with the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship in the United Arab Emirates.
