LIV Golf DC came to an end on Sunday with Harold Varner III taking the win. The 32-year-old won his maiden LIV Golf League event at the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia. With the event, Varner bagged the whopping top prize of $4 million. The golfer took his earnings for the year to over $7.5 million.
Varner shot the final round of 68 to aggregate at 12 under after 54 holes. The golfer ensured his maiden win on the Saudi-backed circuit after he birdied his final hole to win the LIV Golf DC event to beat Brendan Grace by a single-stroke margin. While the 2016 Australian PGA Championship winner took the major share of the prize purse with the win, runner-up Grace settled for a $2,250,000 paycheck.
Mito Pereira, who led LIV Golf DC on the second day, finished third on the podium. He earned $1,500,000 for his efforts. Sebastian Munoz and Henrik Stenson shared T4 and won $900,000 each. Andy Ogletree, who replaced an injured Paul Casey, ended in a tie for a sixth alongside Kevina Na and Louis Oosthuizen. Bryson DeChambeau finished T9 with Cameron Tringale and Cameron Smith.
Interestingly, last week’s PGA Championship winner Brooks Koepka finished T12. He won $350,000 for his efforts.
