As the LIV Golf League commences at Mayakoba, a daring prophecy emerges – LIV Golfers gear up for a triumph in at least two Major Championships. The excitement escalates with the likes of Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka, the 2023 Masters Winner and PGA Championship Winner respectively, being anticipated to be high on the wins, with Smash GC determined to clinch the Team Championship title.

The roster, including Cameron Smith, Bryson DeChambeau, and LIV Golf Orlando winner Dustin Johnson, injects unpredictability into these esteemed events, promising a season of golfing excellence. Jon Rahm, eyeing at least two individual titles in LIV Golf, per the site, strategically adjusts to the challenge of 54-hole tournaments.

Contrary to the traditional 72-hole format, LIV Golf demands immediate excellence, leaving no room for recovery. Rahm’s cautious two-win target aligns with LIV’s competitive fields, yet the potential for a third trophy and season-long champion status adds an extra layer of excitement to the league.
