Joaquín Niemann, captain of Torque GC, delivered a stellar performance in the final round of LIV Golf Singapore presented by Aramco, shooting a 6-under 65 to claim the individual title with a commanding 17-under total of 196. This marks his second individual victory of 2025, following his triumph at LIV Golf Adelaide.
Defending champion Brooks Koepka, captain of Smash GC, finished five strokes behind Niemann, posting a final-round 65 for a 12-under total of 201. Rounding out the podium, Ben Campbell of RangeGoats GC secured third place with a solid 4-under 67, finishing at 11-under 202.
Fireballs GC cemented their place in LIV Golf history with a dominant victory at LIV Golf Singapore presented by Aramco, becoming the first team to win three consecutive team titles this season. Led by Captain Sergio Garcia, the team overcame tough conditions and a significant deficit to claim another title, proving their consistency and resilience on the course.
Niemann shared how he managed his nerves early in the round.
“Today felt like a long day from the morning. I was feeling a little bit more anxious when I woke up, knowing that I was playing with Sebastian (Muñoz), my teammate, who’s been playing great golf lately, and DJ (Dustin Johnson), who’s been in excellent form,” said Niemann who has now won overall four individual titles in LIV Golf league.

However, his nerves quickly settled after a strong start. “Starting with a birdie on the first hole and then birdies on the third and fourth really freed me up. Because of that start, I was able to be really, really free for the whole round.”
With two LIV Golf victories already under his belt this season, Niemann now leads the LIV Golf standings heading into LIV Golf Miami and the Masters. His mindset? Focused and confident.
“More than confident, I feel proud of the work I’m putting in. Confidence is built through preparation, and my next two weeks are going to be about just that. LIV Miami is a great challenge. It is one of the toughest courses we play all year, and then we have the first major of the season. I’m looking forward to the preparation and putting in the most effort to build my confidence for what’s ahead.”
Playing in the leader group comes with its share of pressure, but Niemann has learned to manage those high-stakes moments.
“Every situation is different, but pressure is just a general word. At the end of the day, you feel nervous because of uncertainty. I commit 100 per cent to every shot. Once I hit the ball, I can’t do anything—though I do talk to it a lot, but it never listens,” he joked. “I love the pressure; I love uncomfortable moments because those situations are where you grow and become better.”
Despite his composed demeanour, there were moments when Niemann had to push through adversity.
“That tee shot on No. 3 was really tough. It may look easy, but inside, I was nervous. There were other key moments, like my bunker shot on No. 5. It could have gone either way, but I made a great shot and turned it into three birdies in a row. Golf is all about momentum, and I was able to find mine early in the round.”
One of his standout shots came on the 12th hole from a fairway bunker. “That was probably the toughest shot of the day, and I ended up hitting it really close. It put a smile on my face because I knew earlier in my career that shot would have been a struggle. It shows how much my game has improved.”
With this win, Niemann inches closer to securing a spot in the U.S. Open, but his sights are set on a bigger picture—winning a major.
“It’s definitely a goal to qualify for the majors, but my focus is on making my team win and getting good results for them. As for a major, I know it’s going to happen. Maybe not at the Masters in a few weeks, maybe yes. I have no idea. But I know it’s coming.”
“I know my game is trending in the right direction. The more I learn from these situations, the more ready I’ll be when the opportunity comes.”
With six wins in the past 16 months and growing confidence, Niemann is proving himself to be one of the most formidable players in the world.

Singapore has been a successful stop for Koepka in the past, with first, second, and third finishes in his three visits to Sentosa Golf Club. He credits the course conditions for suiting his game. “It’s a good golf course. The greens are good. They’re a good speed. It’s a challenging course,” he said.
He acknowledged that while he wasn’t striking the ball at his best, he managed to find some momentum late in the round.
“Not really hitting it great, but kind of tried to figure out how to finish second because first was obviously out of reach,” Koepka admitted. “I found some things in the last couple of holes, which was good momentum to build on for the next month.”
Koepka explained that his adjustments came down to fundamentals, focusing on his setup and alignment. “Just going back to basics—setting the club down, making sure I was spot-aiming the last six holes,” he said. “I wasn’t doing that all day. I was more focused on picking something six inches in front of the ball and making sure I was comfortable with my start line. If I don’t feel comfortable with my start line, I’ll never hit it good. It started to feel a little better.”
It has turned out to be a fantastic three weeks for Fireballs GC. Reflecting on their achievement, Garcia expressed his pride in his team’s ability to pull off another win despite the challenges they faced.
“Yeah, obviously super proud to achieve something like that,” Garcia said. “It’s not easy to do. Even though it kind of looks like we made it look easy, it’s definitely not. So many things have to go right with all of us playing well at the same time on tough conditions like today, for example.”
Garcia also revealed that he had been battling illness throughout the week, which limited his ability to contribute as much as he would have liked.
“This week was a tough week because I’ve been sick all week and haven’t been able to help the team as much as I would have liked to,” he added. “To see the performance that my teammates put in to be able to get this win was pretty impressive.”
Heading into the final round, Fireballs GC trailed 4Aces GC by eight strokes. However, Abraham Ancer and his teammates believed they could turn things around.

“We had a team dinner last night that was really good, by the way, and we just talked about how we needed just to play our game,” Ancer said. “It’s a golf course that rewards ball strikers, and I feel like we have really good ball strikers on this team.”
David Puig played a crucial role in the team’s success, finishing solo fourth in the individual standings with a final-round 66 to reach 10-under for the week. His round was highlighted by an impressive stretch of five consecutive birdies from holes 9 through 13.
“The round was very good, obviously,” Puig said. “I think I started pretty solid. I just didn’t make pretty much any putts until I reached the ninth green, where I made a pretty good 10-footer for birdie, and after that, it kind of seemed that everything was clicking together.”
Puig, now with eight career LIV Golf team wins—the most of any player in the league—joked about his growing reputation as the ultimate team player.
“Yeah, it’s unbelievable. I guess I’m just the best player in LIV Golf history. That’s what it is, right?” Puig laughed. “No, let’s just leave it at that.”
With three straight wins, Fireballs GC now set their sights on the upcoming tournaments, including the International Series event in Macau, where qualification for The Open Championship is on the line.
“For me, it’s a little bit of rest the next couple of days, and then we play International Series in Macau,” Garcia explained. “It’s an important tournament for all four of us because if we play well, we have the possibility of not only winning on the International Series but also qualifying for The Open.”
