LIV Golf Miami Comes to a Stunning Close

Dean Burmester Stuns Sergio Garcia in Epic Playoff Duel to Claim LIV Golf Miami Crown and $4 Million Prize while Jon Rahm’s Legion XIII Reigns Supreme and clinches Team Title.
April 7th, 2024
In a riveting showdown at Trump International Doral with the 45th President, Donald Trump, in attendance, Dean Burmester etched his name in LIV Golf history with a triumphant playoff victory over Sergio Garcia. While Burmester may not be teeing off at Augusta this week, his performance at Miami’s grueling Blue Monster course spoke volumes about his world-class talent. His journey to the winner’s circle, punctuated by a clutch par on the second playoff hole, showcased resilience and skill worthy of admiration.
Meanwhile, Jon Rahm and his Legion XIII cohort secured their second team victory of the season, reaffirming their dominance on the LIV Golf stage. Rahm’s masterful 3-under 69, supported by stellar performances from his teammates, propelled Legion XIII to triumph despite facing formidable challenges throughout the day. The celebratory champagne flowed as Legion XIII claimed their well-deserved $3 million team prize.
The battle for individual glory was equally compelling, with Burmester emerging as the victor and recipient of the prestigious $4 million winner’s check. His journey to the top, marked by back-to-back wins in South Africa and now a monumental triumph at LIV Golf Miami, underscores his emergence as a force to be reckoned with on the global golfing stage.
Despite a valiant effort, Garcia’s dreams of victory were dashed once again in a playoff heartbreak, settling for a commendable second place and a handsome $2.25 million payout. The drama and intensity of the final round encapsulated the essence of LIV Golf, where every shot carries immense significance and every player strives for greatness. Burmester had grabbed the solo lead with a birdie at the drivable 16th but bogeyed the difficult par-4 18th after an errant drive. Meanwhile, Garcia grabbed the lead with a 40-footer birdie putt at 17, but he three-putted the 18th to fall back into a tie and force the playoff.

Scenes from LIV Golf Miami at Trump International Doral
Garcia, the Fireballs GC captain, entered the day with a two-shot lead but was eventually caught by multiple players. At one point on the back nine, five players – Burmester, his Stinger Captain Louis Oosthuizen, Garcia, Hatton, and Matthew Wolff – shared the lead.
As the dust settles on Miami, attention turns to the upcoming Masters at Augusta National, where Rahm and Hatton, buoyed by their team success, will look to translate their momentum into individual triumph. But for now, let us bask in the brilliance of Burmester’s triumph and Legion XIII’s dominance, a testament to the unwavering spirit of competition in the world of LIV Golf.
Overall, the event was a spectacular showcase of incredible talent from around the world, with players like Sergio García demonstrating top form throughout the tournament. Even amidst the prestigious golfing atmosphere, the presence of figures like Donald Trump added a unique dynamic, as he engaged with fans and created excitement wherever he went.
For those accustomed to associating LIV with Miami Beach nightlife, the fusion of golf, Doral, and Trump might have seemed unusual, but the event exuded a vibrant energy akin to its namesake. The atmosphere was electric, with music spanning genres and a diverse crowd adding to the lively ambiance.
Players appeared to thoroughly enjoy themselves on the beautiful Blue Monster course, which proved to be as stunning as its name suggests. The format of the event kept things engaging on both team and individual levels, ensuring an entertaining experience for all.

Notably, the event attracted a broad demographic, with plenty of young people and families in attendance, reflecting the inclusivity of the LIV brand. With vibrant music, a lively fan village offering simulations, airbrush tattoos, and an array of food and drink options, the LIV Golf experience was truly one-of-a-kind, blending sport with entertainment seamlessly.
