Joaquin Niemann Dominates the LIV Golf United Kingdom
Golfer Joaquin Niemann is in a privileged position for the final round of the LIV Golf United Kingdom, with a six-stroke lead. The captain of Torque GC, achieved an impressive 65, eight under par, on Saturday’s round at the JCB Golf and Country Club in Rocester, England, which brought him to a total of 14 under par. Niemann had nine birdies, with a single bogey on the 15th hole. Bubba Watson is in second place with 8 under par, after a round of 68. Paul Casey (68), Caleb Surratt (68) and Adrian Meronk (70) are tied for third place at 7 under par. Niemann, who has already won four times on the LIV Golf circuit this season, seeks to add another title to his list, after his victories in Adelaide, Singapore, Mexico City and Virginia.Niemann made five birdies in the first nine holes, including three in a row on holes 1-3.I had a great time. I made a lot of putts. I laughed sometimes because I’m not used to seeing so many go in, and it’s great to see it.

The Torque GC team from Niemann also leads the team championship at 24 under par, three strokes ahead of Legion XIII, who are seeking their first team title since 2023.I think it’s a great course for my eyes. I feel like there are a lot of blind shots. There are a lot of shots from left to right, from left to right, from right to left. You have to move it. You have to use different types of shots off the tee, as well. I feel pretty confident on this course. Hopefully I can improve a position from last year, and I’ll be very happy.

Watson is aware that he will need an exceptional round, and perhaps unfavorable weather conditions, to prevent Niemann from taking the victory.We know we can do it. We’ve been close on a few occasions. I think it’s going to be an exciting day for all of us tomorrow and I hope to see low scores from the four.

Five golfers are tied for sixth place at 6-under, including Niemann’s Torque GC teammate, Carlos Ortiz.He’s playing so well, you don’t expect him to do anything, like back off. Wind direction… I haven’t looked at the weather. That can change a golf course or how we play it, the pin settings.
