Bryson DeChambeau Wins LIV Golf Korea, Secures Second Place Overall

Bryson DeChambeau secured his first win since the 2024 U.S. Open by triumphing at LIV Golf Korea, overcoming recent final-round struggles to claim victory at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club in Incheon. DeChambeau led wire-to-wire and fended off a strong challenge from teammate Charles Howell III, who shot a remarkable 63 on Sunday to briefly tie the lead before DeChambeau pulled ahead with clutch birdies on the back nine. This victory broke a streak of missed opportunities in recent tournaments, including LIV Miami, LIV Mexico City, and the Masters, where DeChambeau had failed to convert leads into wins. The win not only marked DeChambeau's third individual title on the LIV tour but also helped his Crushers GC team secure their first team win of the season. DeChambeau emphasized that his focus now shifts to upcoming majors, particularly the PGA Championship, aiming to build on this momentum. Both DeChambeau and Howell highlighted the intense competition and pressure of the final round, with DeChambeau noting a shift in mindset that allowed him to finish strong.
