Talor Gooch, LIV Golf’s first winner of back-to-back events.
Gooch, who nearly blew a 10-shot advantage last week in Australia before losing to Fireballs GC Captain Sergio Garcia in a play-off for his second straight win at Sentosa Golf Club in Sentosa Island. Brooks Koepka, who finished third with 16 under at one shot off the playoff, was just a few shots outside of it.
“I’m aware that I won’t be able to play this level of golf for ever.” Gooch said, “You just have to enjoy the moment and make it last for as long as possible.” “You try to enjoy these moments, and feel these emotions and feelings. And try to remember them so that when they leave you can get back to it as quickly as you can,” said Gooch.

We all thought he was capable. We all knew he would succeed. Bubba Watson, Gooch’s RangeGoats Captain said: “This is only the beginning.” When you taste it, you’ll want more.
RangeGoats GC swept Singapore, winning their first team championship at 37 under par. They were three shots ahead of Fireballs GC – 34 and five shots ahead of the third placed Crushers GC – -3.
Dustin Johnson and 4Aces GC have never finished in the top three at the LIV 14-event season’s fifth event. Last year, the 4Aces took home the first team title.
Laurie Canter, a LIV member for only a few weeks, made his third hole-in one in the short history of LIV and second in as many week on the par-3 17.

We couldn’t see the ball go in, because of the light on the green. Canter said, “I kind of heard it murmur and saw it bounce. It was a decent shot.” “And everyone on the green went crazy at it.”
LIV Golf, after a series of international events, will be returning to the United States with two back-to-back events in just two weeks. First, LIV Golf D.C. on May 26-28 at Trump National Golf Club, Potomac Falls in Virginia, followed by LIV Golf D.C. Tulsa at Cedar Ridge Country Club, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.
