With the overwhelming majority of Europe fast asleep and the US either getting ready for bed or joining those ‘across the pond’ in gaining some shut-eye, you would be forgiven for not knowing much that went on in the final round of LIV Golf Singapore.
The headlines were captured by Brooks Koepka after his fourth individual LIV Golf victory ahead of Cameron Smith and Marc Leishman, while the team honors once again went to the Australian Ripper GC.

Tringale finished in a tie for 14th at LIV Golf Singapore, despite racking up a disastrous quadruple-bogey nine on the par-5 fourth hole at Sentosa Golf Club. He wasn’t the only one to fall foul of the 587-yard strip, however, with Scott Vincent tripping up via a seven.
