Defending Masters champion Jon Rahm and his Legion XIII teammate Tyrrell Hatton celebrated their second LIV Golf team victory of the season before heading to Augusta National this week. Despite a rollercoaster final round in Miami, Rahm and his team emerged victorious by one shot over RangeGoats GC, setting a positive tone for Rahm’s Masters title defense. Dean Burmester of Stinger GC, who won the LIV Golf Miami individual competition by beating Sergio Garcia in a playoff, showcased his exceptional talent and expressed satisfaction with his recent performances.
Garcia, the Fireballs GC captain, lost in a playoff for the third time in LIV Golf history, falling short to Burmester at Trump National Doral. Despite a challenging day that saw multiple players share the lead, Burmester’s steady play ultimately secured him the victory. Legion XIII, led by Rahm with a 3-under 69, claimed the team title with a total score of 22 under for the week, showcasing resilience and teamwork throughout the event.
The week ended with a champagne celebration for the winning team, reflecting their belief in their ability to succeed. The competition provided thrilling moments and highlighted the skill and determination of the players involved as they navigated the demanding Blue Monster course.
