The temperature is rising as the LIV Golf Team Championship [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/liv-golf-miami/] heads to its final stages. The championship recently saw the elimination of four teams in the quarterfinals. The remaining eight will battle it out to bag a place in the finals. The captain’s pick during the post-match game of the final LIV event had some interesting twists. But Sergio Garcia [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sergio-garcia/] and Bubba Watson [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/bubba-watson/]‘s interaction was arguably the most shocking. After all, in a delightful way, they proved themselves to be cut out of the same cloth! THE FIREBALLS FACE THE RANGEGOATS AT THE LIV GOLF TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP During the interview ahead of the semifinals, Bubba Watson shared his views on facing the Fireballs GC in the semifinals and spoke about the importance of putting their best foot forward in the coming games and stated, “We’ve all got to beat each other to make it to Sunday, so it didn’t matter who was in front of you.” Sergio Garcia, on the other hand, spoke about the weather conditions during the practice sessions and shared his insights about how the change in the wind-blowing pattern can affect the game of his rival team. He said, “The wind was blowing totally different today than the practice rounds, so if it blows the same way, they don’t know what’s going on. Sorry, Bubba.” Upon hearing his name and the mention of his team, the 12-time PGA Tour winner gently poked fun at the rival captain and said, “We haven’t played a practice round yet.” Garcia did not wait for a moment and joined in the lighthearted back and forth and replied, “Me neither. No, but it should be a great match.” SERGIO GARCIA SHOWERS PRAISE ALL AROUND The RangeGoats have put forth quite commendable performances in their matches throughout this year, which helped them get placed among the top 4 teams. Their brilliant form did not go unnoticed by the Spanish golfer. Garcia went on to compliment them and said, “Obviously, RangeGoats have been playing very consistently throughout the year.” READ MORE: ‘I Just Can’t’: After Barely Surviving Brooks Koepka, Phil Mickelson Willingly Admits His ‘Mistakes’ at the $50M LIV Golf Event [https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-i-just-cant-after-barely-surviving-brooks-koepka-phil-mickelson-willingly-admits-his-mistakes-at-the-fifty-million-dollars-liv-golf-event-miami-hyflyers-smash-gc/] The 43-year-old proceeded to praise his fellow teammates, sent a few encouraging words their way for the coming semifinals, and said, “My boys played amazing today, so I hope that they do more of the same tomorrow.” Only time will tell which team will secure their spots in the finals and finally lift this year’s LIV Golf Team Championship title.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Bubba Watson 2023: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements</span></h2>
Bubba Watson (Gerry Lester Watson Jr.) is an unparalleled professional left-handed American golfer. He has scripted a great number of golfing achievements in his career, including two major wins.

In 2022, Watson shocked the golf world by leaving behind the PGA Tour for LIV Golf. Here is all you need to know about Watson's rise to fame, his professional achievements, and other accolades!
<h2>Early life and family</h2>
Bubba Watson was born on November 5, 1978, in Bagdad, Florida. However, he currently resides at Pensacola, Florida. He started to play at the age of six. At that tender age, his father gave him a cut-down 9-iron with which he played around the house, striking whiffle balls. His father was his first and the only teacher who taught him the basics. After that, Watson taught himself, thus developing a unique playing style.

He married his wife, Angie, in 2004. The couple adopted two children. They adopted Caleb, a son in 2012, and a daughter, Dakota, in 2014.
<h2>Amateur career</h2>
Watson started to play golf at a very young age and never stopped playing it. After initially dabbling in baseball for a while in his Milton high school, Watson left that sport for golf. He played in his school golf team, and when he went to college in Alabama, Faulkner State Community, he continued playing.

Even when Watson went to study at university (the University of Georgia), his passion for the sport did not subside. He left college a year before he graduated and turned pro in golf in 2002.
<h2>Professional career</h2>
After turning pro, Watson toured from 2001 to 2005 with the Developmental Nationwide Tour. In 2006, as a PGA rookie, Watson led in the driving distance. He averaged around 319.6 yards per drive.

Mandatory Credit: Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]

His first-ever victory on the PGA Tour came in June of 2010 at the Travelers Championship. In the following years, Watson went on to win many championships. So far, he has won 12 titles on the PGA Tour, including two major victories. The golfer achieved his career-best second-place rank on the Official World Golf Rankings in February 2015.
<h2>Major wins</h2>
In 2012, he played against Louis Oosthuizen, a South African golfer, and pipped him to the green jacket. Winning in the Master's Tournament in 2012 was not the only achievement. Bubba Watson again flaunted his unique style and talent for golf in 2014. He wore the "Green Jacket" for the second time.

He came close to winning the PGA Championship in 2010, losing the title to Martin Kaymer at Whistling Straits. He then settled for a solo second-place finish.
<h2>US national team appearances</h2>
Bubba Watson has been part of the Ryder Cup squads for the USA four times to date (2010, 2012, 2014, and 2018). He has also been a part of the Presidents Cup squad in 2011 and 2015. Both times, Team US emerged as the winner of the competition.
<h2>Move to LIV Golf</h2>
In 2022, Bubba Watson was one of the biggest names to move to LIV Golf. Per the Telegraph, the 2-time major winner had signed a whopping $50 million contract with the Saudi-backed circuit! However, his knee surgery kept him away from the greens that year.

After joining the LIV league, Watson was also made captain of the RangeGoats GC. It is one of the twelve teams in the league and includes Talor Gooch, Thomas Pieters, and Harold Varner III.
<h2>Net worth and endorsements</h2>
Per GolfSpan, Bubba Watson boasts a net worth of $40 million. According to various sources, he has pocketed a total of $48,049,780 in career earnings, averaging $2,669,432 in prize money per year. However, his jaw-dropping contract with LIV Golf is bound to have significantly boosted his wealth.

Luxury watch brand Richard Mille has partnered up with Watson to promote the brand. The brand has customized Bubba Watson watches: RM 38-01 Tourbillon G-Sensor, RM 055, and RM 038 Tourbillon, designed especially for him. Apart from watches, Bubba Watson has been linked with Linksoul and has often worn the brand on the golf course. He has also partnered up with PING and Nike. He has often used PING equipment while playing. Moreover, the golfer has also been seen wearing Nike Jordans on the field.

<h2><strong>LIV Golf Miami 2023: History, Format, and Composition</strong></h2>
LIV Golf is a new league in the golf world, backed by Yasir Al-Rumayyan. This league was inaugurated last year and is popular for its atypical game format and team elements. The LIV Golf Miami is the final team championship in the LIV schedule. This event was introduced last year; hence, 2023 LIV Golf Miami will be the second edition of it. <em>"We’re thrilled to return to the Blue Monster at Doral to celebrate a historic year and crown the 2023 LIV Golf League team champion,"</em> said LIV CEO Greg Norman.

Like other LIV tournaments, Team Championship Miami will also be a three-day strong play, and the final dates are already out. The event will start on October 20 and continue until October 22. The location of the venue remains unchanged from 2022. It is going to take place at the Trump National Doral in Miami, USA.
<h2><b>Introduction to the LIV Golf Miami</b></h2>
<ul>
 	<li><b>Origin and Naming</b></li>
</ul>
LIV Golf Miami is the ultimate team championship event. Besides, the entire Greg Norman squad of 48 players will be participating in the event. As far as the name of the event is concerned, it shares some familiarity with other LIV events. The venue of the event is mentioned in the name. In this case, since it's taking place in Miami, USA, the name is LIV Golf Miami.
<ul>
 	<li><b>Historical winners</b></li>
</ul>
Last year, the final Team Championship in Miami called its curtain on Sunday, October 30. With that, Dustin Johnson's 4Aces, the number one seed, triumphed at the event and secured the LIV Golf Team Championship title.

The Miami event is entirely devoted to team participation, and last year Punch GC, Smash GC, Stinger GC, and 4Aces GC were the final four teams of the competition. Last year, the prize pool for the team championship was quite hefty. The entire purse was $50 million, out of which all the teams bagged their portions of prize shares. The winner, 4 Aces GC, got $16 million, which was shared amongst the four members. Punch GC, the runner-up, received $8 million under the leadership of Cameron Smith.

Apart from the winners and payouts, let's take a look at the Team Championship format.
<h2><b>LIV Golf Miami 2023 format</b></h2>
Other than the PGA Tour, LIV Golf follows its own rule to start off a match with a shotgun. Also, in LIV Golf Miami, the beginning process will remain the same. Now, let's look at the breakdown of how the match will proceed day by day:

<b>The Quarterfinals: Friday</b>
<ul>
 	<li>Teams seeded 1-4 will get a bye.</li>
 	<li>Teams ranked 5–12 will match against each other in both singles matches and one foursome.</li>
 	<li>The top-ranked team can pick its competitor.</li>
 	<li>The 32 players from eight teams will compete simultaneously as the shotgun fires.</li>
 	<li>Matches continue until there's a winner, and there's no system for ties. A winner in each match will receive a point.</li>
 	<li>Teams achieving two points will go to Saturday's semifinals.</li>
</ul>
<strong>The Semi-Finals: Saturday</strong>
<ul>
 	<li>Teams ranked 1-4 join the four Friday-winning teams for head-to-head team match play.</li>
 	<li>Again, the best teams choose their enemy teams.</li>
 	<li>As a repetition of Friday, all 32 players will contest simultaneously as shotgun fires.</li>
 	<li>Teams follow the Friday format: two singles and one foursome. And in each match, the victor will get a point.</li>
 	<li>In the end, the team championship will consist of the four teams that earned two points.</li>
</ul>
<b>The Championship: Sunday</b>
<ul>
 	<li>The four winning teams will compete in stroke play as the shotgun fires.</li>
 	<li>All sixteen players will play in twosomes, and team captains will play together.</li>
 	<li>All four scores will be considered the team score.</li>
 	<li>At the end of day three, the team with the lowest score will be declared the champion squad.</li>
</ul>

Last year, the coverage was done by SS Variety 1, and the match was televised at 6 p.m. This year, the details of that are yet to be known.
<h2><b>2023 LIV Golf Miami course details</b></h2>
The golf resort, Trump National Doral Miami, is situated in South Florida. The history of the course and its naming have a very interesting story. In 1962, Alfred Kaskel, a businessman, founded the place. It was named 'Doral' following his name Kaskel and his wife's name Doris. It has a 72-hole layout, and the LIV Team Championship takes place at their signature Blue Monster course at Doral.

The course was designed by Dick Wilson, and its length stretched for 7,510 yards. Besides the Blue Monster, there are other three courses at Miami: Golden Palm (6,609 yards), Red Tiger (6,101 yards), and Silver Fox (6,557 yards).

Over the years, the Blue Monster has even gone on to host many significant events in the sport. Aside from the LIV Team Championship, the Blue Monster hosted the Doral Open, a PGA Tour event, from 1962 to 2006. Another professional golf tournament, the WGC-Cadillac Championship, was also played there for a period of time from 2007–2016 after having played in other venues. The resort's other courses also hosted different events, like Golden Palm, which served as the venue of the PGA Tour's Qualifying Tournament in 1999. Also, Red Tiger was the layout where LPGA Tour's The Office Depot was played.

This league was inaugurated last year and is popular for its atypical game format and team elements. The LIV Golf Miami is the final team championship in the LIV schedule. This event was introduced last year; hence, 2023 LIV Golf Miami will be the second edition of it. &#8220;We’re thrilled to return to the Blue Monster at Doral to celebrate a historic year and crown the 2023 LIV Golf League team champion,&#8221; said LIV CEO Greg Norman. Like other LIV tournaments, Team Championship Miami will also be a three-day strong play, and the final dates are already out. The event will start on October 20 and continue until October 22. The location of the venue remains unchanged from 2022. It is going to take place at the Trump National Doral in Miami, USA. Introduction to the LIV Golf Miami Origin and Naming LIV Golf Miami is the ultimate team championship event. Besides, the entire Greg Norman squad of 48 players will be participating in the event. As far as the name of the event is concerned, it shares some familiarity with other LIV events. The venue of the event is mentioned in the name. In this case, since it&#8217;s taking place in Miami, USA, the name is LIV Golf Miami. Historical winners Last year, the final Team Championship in Miami called its curtain on Sunday, October 30. With that, Dustin Johnson&#8217;s 4Aces, the number one seed, triumphed at the event and secured the LIV Golf Team Championship title. The Miami event is entirely devoted to team participation, and last year Punch GC, Smash GC, Stinger GC, and 4Aces GC were the final four teams of the competition. Last year, the prize pool for the team championship was quite hefty. The entire purse was $50 million, out of which all the teams bagged their portions of prize shares. The winner, 4 Aces GC, got $16 million, which was shared amongst the four members. Punch GC, the runner-up, received $8 million under the leadership of Cameron Smith.

Mandatory Credit: Richard Cashin-USA TODAY Sports Apart from the winners and payouts, let&#8217;s take a look at the Team Championship format. LIV Golf Miami 2023 format Other than the PGA Tour, LIV Golf follows its own rule to start off a match with a shotgun. Also, in LIV Golf Miami, the beginning process will remain the same. Now, let&#8217;s look at the breakdown of how the match will proceed day by day: The Quarterfinals: Friday Teams seeded 1-4 will get a bye. Teams ranked 5–12 will match against each other in both singles matches and one foursome. The top-ranked team can pick its competitor. The 32 players from eight teams will compete simultaneously as the shotgun fires. Matches continue until there&#8217;s a winner, and there&#8217;s no system for ties. A winner in each match will receive a point. Teams achieving two points will go to Saturday&#8217;s semifinals. The Semi-Finals: Saturday Teams ranked 1-4 join the four Friday-winning teams for head-to-head team match play. Again, the best teams choose their enemy teams. As a repetition of Friday, all 32 players will contest simultaneously as shotgun fires. Teams follow the Friday format: two singles and one foursome. And in each match, the victor will get a point. In the end, the team championship will consist of the four teams that earned two points. The Championship: Sunday The four winning teams will compete in stroke play as the shotgun fires. All sixteen players will play in twosomes, and team captains will play together. All four scores will be considered the team score. At the end of day three, the team with the lowest score will be declared the champion squad.

The history of the course and its naming have a very interesting story. In 1962, Alfred Kaskel, a businessman, founded the place. It was named &#8216;Doral&#8217; following his name Kaskel and his wife&#8217;s name Doris. It has a 72-hole layout, and the LIV Team Championship takes place at their signature Blue Monster course at Doral. The course was designed by Dick Wilson, and its length stretched for 7,510 yards. Besides the Blue Monster, there are other three courses at Miami: Golden Palm (6,609 yards), Red Tiger (6,101 yards), and Silver Fox (6,557 yards). Over the years, the Blue Monster has even gone on to host many significant events in the sport. Aside from the LIV Team Championship, the Blue Monster hosted the Doral Open, a PGA Tour event, from 1962 to 2006. Another professional golf tournament, the WGC-Cadillac Championship, was also played there for a period of time from 2007–2016 after having played in other venues. The resort&#8217;s other courses also hosted different events, like Golden Palm, which served as the venue of the PGA Tour&#8217;s Qualifying Tournament in 1999. Also, Red Tiger was the layout where LPGA Tour&#8217;s The Office Depot was played. 2023 LIV Golf Miami teams  Serial No. LIV Golf team names Members  1 4Aces GC Captain Dustin Johnson, Pat Perez, Patrick Reed, and Peter Uihlein  2 Crushers GC Captain Bryson DeChambeau, Charles Howell III, Paul Casey, and Anirban Lahiri  3 Torque GC Captain Joaquin Niemann, David Puig, Sebastian Munoz, and Mito Pereira  4 Stinger GC Captain Louis Oosthuizen, Dean Burmester, Branden Grace, and Charl Schwartzel  5 RangeGoats GC Captain Bubba Watson, Talor Gooch, Thomas Pieters, and Harold Varner III  6 Fireballs GC Captain Sergio Garcia, Abraham Ancer, Eugenio Chacarra, and Carlos Ortiz  7 Ripper GC Captain Cameron Smith, Matt Jones, Marc Leishman, and Jediah Morgan  8 Smash GC Captain Brooks Koepka, Chase Koepka, Jason Kokraka, and Matthew Wolff  9 HyFlyers GC Captain Phil Mickelson, James Piot, Brendan Steele and Cameron Tringale  10 Majesticks GC Captain Ian Poulter, Henrik Stenson, Lee Westwood, and Sam Horsfield  11 Iron Heads GC Captain Kevin Na, Sihwan Kim, Danny Lee, and Scott Vincent  12 Cleeks GC Captain Martin Kaymer, Richard Bland, Graeme McDowell, and Bernd Wiesberger  Special offers at LIV Golf Miami The fans can enroll themselves on LIV Golf&#8217;s official site to get the birdie tickets, and the first comer will get the utmost preference.
