Cameron Smith, Talor Gooch or Bryson DeChambeau will be crowned individual champion at LIV Golf Jeddah

LIV Golf Jeddah will be the ultimate event to determine the winner of the entire season. With many strong competitors, the race for the individual title is still ongoing.

However, it has now been brought down to three contenders namely, Cameron Smith, Talor Gooch and Bryson DeChambeau. Either of these players could win the individual title and claim the additional $18 million bonus.

Interestingly, five other golfers also have a chance to secure the third spot, however, that is a long shot. Nonetheless, the US Open winner Bryson DeChambeau has the strongest chance to claim the LIV Golf Jeddah title and win the championship.

The American golfer has two wins in his last three starts and is in brilliant form. Although a third win won't guarantee him the title, it will force his competitors to perform and close in on the leaderboard.
