Here’s the surprising twist. John Rohm defended his LIIV golf season points title, but the drama ended with a playoff loss to Sebastian Munoz. A moment that sparks debates about fairness in tournament design. But here’s where it gets controversial. Rom didn’t even win a single event this year, yet he still claimed the title. How? After shooting a 59, a record for the event, and later facing a double bogey, he rallied to win two days in a row. His triumph over Rahm, a three-time champion, is a testament to his grit. Yet, the broader story is about the live golf structure itself. For instance, Hakee Neman, who finished second in the standings, didn’t win a single tournament, but still secured a top 10 finish. It’s hard to swallow, Neman said, but I’ll use it to push harder next year. The team event also had its own twists. Torque GC shattered the live record with a 64 under total thanks to Munoz and Neman’s stellar performances. Meanwhile, Henrik Stenson’s missed putt forced Ian Palter out of the tour, highlighting the high stakes of this competition. And this is the part most people miss. The live golf format isn’t just about individual skill. It’s a test of adaptability, strategy, and luck. So, here’s the question. Is a season title worth achieving without winning a tournament? Or does the system reward the wrong things? Share your thoughts in the comments. What do you think makes a true champion in this game?
