Since signing for LIV Golf in 2022, Joaquin Niemann has continued to show what a fantastic player he is via eight wins and a whole heap of top-10s.
It took time for the former World No.1 amateur to locate LIV’s winner’s circle, however, with the 2024 season freshly underway before Niemann hoisted a trophy in Mayakoba.

He was the highest-ranked player in the world under the age of 25 at the time of his move to the breakaway circuit and, according to The Telegraph, Niemann received a signing-on fee of around $100 million.
