2024 LIV Golf Mayakoba best performances

The historic first round of 12 under 59 signed by Joaquin Niemann finally proved decisive. The Chilean was not the same during the weekend, but what he did on Friday was enough to force the playoff with Sergio Garcia at the end.

Both players made par on the first three holes and decided to play the fourth despite the darkness that was already beginning to reign at LIV Golf Mayakoba. Niemann birdied the fourth hole to finally take the title.

Jon Rahm finished third in his LIV Golf debut. The Spaniard birdied consecutively from the 13th to the 15th during round 4 to tie for first place but bogeys on 17 and 18 dropped him to third place.

Young Caleb Surratt, who finished T13 with a score of 5 under, was very impressive during the event. Surratt triple bogeyed his 13th hole of the fourth round but rebounded by birdieing the next five holes to give his team Legion XIII the victory.
