In a very high version, of those days of more glory when the rictus was niced, the adrenaline was shot frequently and did not have the current moderation, Sergio García (63 strokes) took the Liv Golf of Hong Kong, the third stop of the season. It is the second title of Borriol in this circuit, after the one achieved in Valderrama in 2024. In addition, he completed the perfect weekend with the victory of the Fireballs that Capitanea, the second consecutive (results) (results)
“It has been incredible. My goal was to throw five bass torque and has exceeded my expectations. Then, by teams, it has been fantastic too. I am very proud of my boys,” said the champion, who surpassed Dean Burmester in three blows and in four to Phil Mickelson, in the best performance of the left -handed in this league.
Garcia, who drew with Paul Casey and Peter Uihlein on a Sunday of clouds and clear, but without much humidity or wind, players with long pants except for excepts counted, he shot out of the beginning. In Hole 3, one of the two pairs 5 of the Hong Kong Golf Club route, a short, very strategic field, where the risk when it is taken to be assessed, achieved an Eagle from 12 meters.
That start promoted his impetus. He is 45 years old, but does not want to travel through the avant -garde golf what he has left. Nor assume the skills of the Fireballs. He wants to keep winning. To do this he has introduced professional variants in his team. The last, since last year, a Sevillian chef who has hired to have him daily at his home in Austin.
Sergio García, in an exit blow.
Sergio found his peak moment from Hole 8. He had made a great bunker taken in 5 and the rest had dispatched him with solvency. But his game gave a change as a result. He began to sharpen the irons and with firm putts, with a putt that rescued from the bag six years ago, he packed four birdies in a row while his persecutors saved pairs or fell. The result was a five -stroke gap in a jiffy. And there were only seven holes left. The statistics that only Rafa Nadal challenges gave him 98 percent success.
So much distance did not enter into anyone’s calculations. Lucas Herbert, a specialist in Rachas, packed six Birdies in seven holes and looked out in the distance. Also Dean Burmester, the South African peer, who added four successes in the five, although Sergio’s victory was irrebatible. In case there were doubts, another Birdie in the 16th hole in a stage in which Miguel Ángel Jiménez won, four times; José María Olazábal and José Manuel Lara, also reigned another Spanish, an indisputable figure despite criticism.
The team trophy was secured, the second consecutive after winning in Adelaida. The Mexican Abraham Ancer (65), inspired by the final day, was another good strut and David Puig (67), with an Eagle included in Hole 10, a torque 4 that took a blow, were decisive. The young Luis Masaveu, in a lower tone than his teammates, knew how to endure the guy and ended with a birdie at the same time.
Jon Rahm (66) collected, on the other hand, another Top 10. With a well -armed game he did not have a colossal performance in the Green and did not allow him to pass from the sixth place. The tournament had been put in Chinese on Friday, when he only signed one low. But, for the moment, everything is good signs for the appointment of the Masters of Augusta, the first milestone of the course.
