Niemann wins in Virginia for sixth career LIV crown
Bangkok Post
|June 10, 2025
Joaquin Niemann birdied Nos.14-17 to cap off a bogey-free, 8-under-par 63 for his final round and hung on to win LIV Golf Virginia on Sunday in Gainesville, Virginia.
-
The 26-year-old from Chile went 15-under 198 for the week at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club and beat Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell (66) and Anirban Lahiri of India (68) by a single stroke. Lahiri had a birdie attempt at his final hole to force a playoff with Niemann but could not convert.
Niemann’s sixth LIV win — all coming in a 17-month span — broke a tie with Brooks Koepka for the most victories in the Saudi-backed league's brief history. He had to endure a rain delay and fend off a crowded field of players to finish the job.
