No I did not try DPP, but I tried manual in ACR and Lightroom. Same result. I cannot remove bluish fringing on blue background. It creates blotches all over if pushed too much. It seems that on wide end better to step down aperture to keep it in focus for backlit scenarios. I don't see excessive CA at 17mm and longer. I had Sigma 8-16 on 7D Mark II. Never had such problem, so that was kind of unexpected behavior for 15-35. I just not sure if should I try another lens.

Manual correction in LR .

Unfortunately the image is overexposed. When shooting these types of scenes I recommend using the highlight tone priority setting. I just leave it on all the time.

If the image was not overexposed you could select the sky only using a blend layer in Photoshop like this:
