Joaquin Niemann birdied 4 of the final 5 holes to choose up his sixth LIV Golf profession title in Virginia at Robert Trent Jones Golf Membership.
An eight-under closing spherical noticed him cling on towards the chasing Graeme McDowell and Anirban Lahiri, beating them by a single stroke.
India’s Lahiri had the chance to birdie the ultimate gap to power a play-off with LIV’s dominant power in 2025 however he couldn’t take the possibility.
Niemann battled by way of a rain delay to choose up his sixth win which makes him probably the most adorned LIV participant, Brooks Koepka sitting in second on 5 victories.
“I felt like there was a lot going on during the rain delay,” Niemann stated.
“Tried to maintain my thoughts on the best ideas, and having Bryson DeChambeau coming off fairly clutch on the finish, Phil Mickelson as nicely, Anirban.
“It could have been for anybody, and I felt like I was all day just behind, especially since the beginning of the week, and I feel like the only word that I was telling myself from last night was just have faith. There’s nothing else I can do, have a good attitude, and just wait.”
With the win, Niemann now heads to the US Open at Oakmont, taking an exemption spot which is reserved for a prime participant within the LIV Golf League.
“I feel like I’m still pretty far away off winning [a major],” the Chilean stated.
