Brendan Steele wasn't among the favorites to win at LIV Golf Adelaide

The 41-year-old Brendan Steele wasn't the bookies' favorite before the tournament, so anyone who chose him must have earned a fortune. Jon Rahm, Cameron Smith, and Dustin Johnson had the best odds to win the tournament.

Steele said that he continuously motivated himself to regain the sense of freedom in his play after winning the tournament. Steele said in the post-match press conference:

"Yeah, I was telling myself that I knew there was going to be hard moments today regardless of the result and that I just needed to get back in there and start playing with freedom again... And I was able to hit some good shots after that and write the show."

Brendan Steele started the season with a decent T21 finish at LIV Golf Mayakoba. However, it all went downhill at Las Vegas where he finished T53. He recovered in Jeddah and Miami where he finished T22 and T18 respectively.

The LIV Golf Adelaide victory would give Brendan Steele the confidence he has been missing for a long time. Before Adelaide, his last victory came at the PGA Tour's Safeway Open event in 2017.
