This week is the fifth LIV Golf event of the year and the third straight week the league has played in three different countries. But this marks the first time they’ve ever played in Africa, competing at the Club at Steyn City in Johannesburg. The all-South African Southern Guards team of Louis Oosthuizen, Dean Burmester, Branden Grace and Charl Schwartzel was responsible for bringing the event here.
The usual cast of characters will be playing for the $30 million purse with the individual winner taking home $4 million and the winning team splitting $3 million.
Bryson DeChambeau comes here as the latest winner after topping Richard T. Lee in a playoff in Singapore where Lee missed a two-foot putt.
Dustin Johnson’s 4Aces team has won the last two team trophies yet Cam Smith’s Ripper team is atop the season standings because they won the first two team trophies. Jon Rahm leads the individual standings and hasn’t finished worse than fifth in four starts.
Here’s the rundown of what each player will earn this week in South Africa. Check back here Sunday when play is complete for updates.
