2024 LIV Golf Mayakoba highlights

Joaquin Niemann won the inaugural event of the 2024 LIV Golf season with a score of 12 under. He defeated Sergio Garcia in a 4-hole playoff, that ended in the middle of darkness, to take the title.

Niemann also starred in the great feat of the event, carding a 59 during the first round. This Sunday, February 4, the Chilean had three birdies and two bogeys.

Jon Rahm started the round in fourth place but rose to share the top of the leaderboard after birdieing from 13th to 16th. However, he was unable to keep the pace and bogeyed the last two holes to drop to third place.

Nevertheless, Rahm did lead Legion XIII to the team title with a score of -24. This was influenced by the rebound during the third round of Tyrrell Hatton (-7) and Caleb Surratt (-5).
