Joaquín Niemann is again for the second consecutive year one of the great referents of the circuit promoted by Saudi Arabia and proof of this is that, after four played tournaments, he has achieved his second victory of the season, this time in Liv Singapore. The Chilean, who already won in Adelaida, is the first player who repeats triumph this course. Literally, Joaco devastated and, with 196 blows to the accumulated, beat five advantage over Brooks Koepka (201).
The podium in Sentosa Golf Club was completed by New Zealand Ben Cambell (202). David Puig (2026), who threw 66 in the last round, ended in a spectacular fourth place, while Jon Rahm (204) shared the fifth place with four other players, including a Dustin Johnson who had started the day matched with Niemann. DJ signed a 73 card for the 65 of the new leader of the LIV general, which advances to Rahm (2nd) and Sergio García (3rd). Complete classification, here.
Tricamepones in Livfireballs
The great news for the Spanish golf was the victory of the Fireballs for the third consecutive week and the great general performance of ours. This time it was not Captain Garcia who added the most, but a David Puig who is an example of growth. Great contribution of Abraham Ancer (10th with -7) and Luis Masaveu (14th with -5). The young Madrid signed his best week in the LIV and contributed to the 10th of the Fireballs in the final round so that, with 22 under a couple, they would defeat Rahm’s Legion XIII, which finished second.
Sergio was very happy for his squad: “I am super proud of how they played and what we have been able to achieve,” Garcia said after finishing the tournament. In a more personal basis, he regretted not having added more because he was not completely fine: “Obviously, I did not feel very good this week, and that affected me a bit mentally at key moments like today,” he added.
With regard to the game, emphasize that Rahm, although it started with a Bogey, played very well and signed 67 blows to close his week in Singapore. He was really successful from Tee to Green and gave many Birdie options. He regretted some putts that did not enter by little, but it is still clearly ascending. The ‘Lion of Barrika’ already accumulates 21 rounds in a row in the LIV playing under par. This course his worst result has been a sixth place (twice) and without a doubt a player like him will always miss a fourth round. Hopefully LIV is implemented next year, not by Rahm, but for the challenge of four days.
