Despite losing in a playoff and choking a lead late in the contest, Garcia took home a very nice payday of over $2.25 million.

It is worth noting that 54 players get paid for their performances. As long as they don't withdraw, even the last-place player gets a significant check. Therefore, it's not as damaging that Anthony Kim, Lucas Herbert, Pat Perez and others had a tough weekend. Cameron Smith, on the other hand, had to withdraw.

It was a very solid outing for Joaquin Niemann, who earned a substantial influx of cash ahead of his trip to Augusta National for the Masters this year. The same is true of Patrick Reed, Bryson DeChambeau and Dustin Johnson.

Bryson DeChambeau did well in LIV Golf Miami

It wasn't a great showing for Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson, who are also heading to Augusta National, but they still earned quite a bit of money despite shooting over par. There's plenty of money in store for every LIV event, and this one was no different.

Legion XIII, Jon Rahm's team, earned $3 million for their second win of the year. Stingers GC earned a second-place prize of $1.5 million. Range Goats GC took home $500,000 for coming in third.
