Joaquin Niemann produced the day’s only bogey-free round at LIV Golf Adelaide, shooting a 7-under 65 to eventually reel in Fireballs GC’s Abraham Ancer, who led the majority of the day until suffering three bogeys on his final five holes.

Niemann’s 13 under total was good enough for a three-shot victory over Ancer and Torque GC teammate Carlos Ortiz, who each shot 71.

It’s the second straight LIV Golf season in which Niemann has posted an early victory. A year ago, he won the first and third events of the season and led the season-long points standing until finishing second to Legion XIII Captain Jon Rahm in the Individual Championship.

Two months ago, Niemann won the PIF Saudi International presented by SoftBank Investment Advisers and also won the season-long International Series championship.

“Days like today makes me grow as a player,” said Niemann, who won for the second time in his career in Australia, having captured the Australian Open in 2023 on the DP World Tour. “There is a lot I have to take from today and learn from it because today was a really good day. If I could have these Sundays more often, chasing leaders, it would be really good for my game.”

Ancer, also a former Australian Open champ, was still able to celebrate atop the Adelaide podium, with the Fireballs claiming the team title by six strokes over Jon Rahm’s Legion XIII, with Torque finishing third.

The Fireballs certainly were satisfied after winning their fifth tournament in club history, four of them on different continents. They’re also the only team to have won at least one team title in all four LIV Golf seasons. Captain Sergio Garcia and David Puig each shot 5-under 67s, while Ancer and newcomer Luis Masaveu, the 22-year-old, shot 71s.

“Bittersweet with Abe, the way he played,” Garcia said. “He was there the whole day, and it would have been nice to get the double. But super proud of the way they all fought.”
