LIV Golf Mayakoba payout distribution 2024: Winner's Payout & Prize Earnings
Following a busy offseason, LIV Golf kicked off its 2024 campaign, the third official season for the emergent tour, with a bang.
The Saudi-backed circuit made some significant additions during its offseason, none more significant than the signing of last year's Masters champion Jon Rahm.
While Rahm was a prominent fixture on the leaderboard throughout the week, it was Joaquin Niemann and Sergio Garcia who stole headlines with an epic finish at the season-opener at Mayakoba's El Camaleon.
The two battled in the dark during a dramatic four-hole playoff that ended with the Chilean, Niemann, emerging triumphant to claim his first title on the LIV Tour. The 25-year-old opened the week at Mayakoba with a blistering 12-under 71 on Friday before overcoming both a two-stroke penalty and an epic playoff duel for the win.
