The LIV Golf setup's 2024 season is well underway, after Mayakoba and Las Vegas played host to back-to-back tournaments at the beginning of February
The man who got himself over the line in Mexico was Torque GC captain Joaquin Niemann, as he saw off Sergio Garcia in a tense four-hole playoff to get his hands on the £3.2 million ($4bn) winners' cheque. In the team event, it was debutant Jon Rahm who led his Legion XIII franchise to victory.
